I have been setting up a new project in Umbraco 9 beta 4, and have been trying to find a way to serve images as webp in a similar way to how imageprocessor.webp works in older versions of Umbraco.
I have followed this guide and it serves images correctly with the correct crops, however according to devtools its always loading jpeg.

Am I missing something? or is this no longer something that can be done easily in Umbraco 9?
thanks in advance :)
Edit: I have also tried updating to the latest nightly and it does the same thing
As the blog says it is currently not yet supported by the libary that Umbraco 9 uses.
Yeah sorry, he updated it once I informed him it wasn't possible, I just forgot to update this post 🤦♂️

Just an update to anyone who finds themselves reading this forum post...
Webp support has made it into the dev builds of
ImageSharp.Web.Still looking for answers on how to enable it. I can convert images programmatically but the web command doesn't trigger properly.
Started asking around to see if we can get this working in Umbraco 9 sooner than later.
is working on a reply...
