The Convert to WebP plugin has an option for an output folder. You’ll want to set the output location there (the write node doesn’t understand what to do with WebP images, so it’d be converted to whatever is set there).
I appreciate your help Gus, and apologize for missing whatever obvious way this is done.
When I first saw the repeated console message, I searched hard but could not find any way to edit settings for the Convert to WebP plugin.
I have included some screenshots highlighting the areas where I thought I might find such a setting but did not.
EDIT: This forum only allows me to share one screenshot, but the gist of it is that I tried whatever variations of clicks and double-clicks I could think of, on whatever parts of the interface are related to the Convert to WebP plugin or format conversion in general.
Again, I apologize, once I know how to do this I will know how to apply settings to other plugins too, and hopefully other users will find this thread useful too.
Just an update on this- for the 1.4.2 update I’ve added preliminary WebP support to Retrobatch. You can grab a preview of it from here: Latest Builds from Flying Meat
I’d appreciate any feedback on this if you have any.
