Hey, thanks for sharing your add-on. I would love to use it. Sadly I have the following error on Mac.
Perhaps you have an idea?
Error
An error occurred. Please start Anki while holding down the shift key, which will temporarily disable the add-ons you have installed.

Hi! My guess is that the included binary is not compatible with MacOS. I'm going to include one and hopefully it won't crash anymore. For now you can run brew install webp, in theory it should solve the issue on your machine.
brew install webpdid not help. I even tried brew reinstall and I updated the add-on + restart of anki. The error message was still the same.
To solve the Problem I had to download the cwebp file from google and put it in the directory manually.
Thanks for your help and this gread addon.
Thank you for the clarification. I included the cwebp binary in the package. Now the addon should work on macOS out of the box.
