I wanted to add a tiny .webp picture (<1kb) to my nomadnet page.

The guide in nomadnet says i can use this line:
`(The RNS logo`w=n`a=c`:/media/demo.webp)

There was no media folder in my nomadnet storage folder so i tryed putting the image into the pages folder and in the files folder.
`(test`w=n`a=c`:/file/test.webp)
but the second i type the "p" in webp nomadnet crashes when trying to load the preview of the .webp in the "my node" editor.

I can load .webp in other pages without it crashing, so its probably not related to rendering in terminal.

What are the best practices to serve pictures?
Is there a fixed folder?
Did i get the syntax wrong?

Glad for every help thx

The node editor was before inline images were a thing so I will take a look at this. Thanks for the report

[SOLVED]

Installing ffmpeg did the trick.

Apparently the process to convert png/gif/jpg/etc to .webp also tryes to run when the picture is already a .webp, and if it dosent find a backend for converting it crashes with no error.

Not sure thats a real bug that needs fixing, maybe just update the Guide to mentions that the convert backend must exist even if the file is already .webp
