webp files into the png via linux terminal

Converting .webp files downloaded from the internet to image formats such as png and jpeg can often be troublesome and frustrating. What would you think if I told you that you could do this with a single line of code via your Linux terminal?

What I'm about to tell you is life-saving information, especially for those who deal with graphic design. Without further ado, let's move directly to the methods on how to do it:

webp method

First of all we have to install webp to our system to use our converter. Open your terminal and copy paste the code below.

Her is simple instruction :

1. Install webp

sudo apt install webp 

1. use dwebp to decode file

dwebp {{ input_file_path }} -o {{ output_file_path }}

For instance :

dwebp fullhdfilmsites.webp -o proxima_movie_cover.png

ffmpeg method

ffmpeg comes as default converter with most of the linux distro's. But if you don't have ffmpeg you have to install it first.

apt-get install ffmpeg

Then use this code below:

ffmpeg -i {{input_file_path}} {{output_file_path}}

For instance :

ffmpeg -i fullhdfilmsites.webp proxima_movie_cover.png
