Imagemagick: heic support

[dineshkannaa]

may I know from which version heic is supported in image magick ?

[dlemstra]

Support was added in 7.0.7-23 and we made some big improvements in 7.0.7-29.

Thank you . I installed libde265 , but when I make the build it says "HEIC --with-heic=yes value=no" . I want to use HEIC functions of Image Magick . could you tell what I'm doing wrong.

You will also need libheif.

[dineshkannaa]

libheif is released under GNU LGPL license . will there be any license problem if we used it for a commercial purpose .

[dlemstra]

libde265 also uses LGPL. I like this explanation about LGPL: https://tldrlegal.com/license/gnu-lesser-general-public-license-v3-(lgpl-3). Short answer, it depends.
