How to save files in txt2img-images as jpeg but saved as webp?

[Rabcor]

I could only find an option to save all files as a specific format (e.g. png, jpeg, and webp) but I would prefer if the cached files that by default go to the txt2img-images dir were just saved as jpegs whereas when I click the save button I want it to save as lossless webp .

Is there a solution to save different formats to different directories?

(and tip for anyone reading this that might not know, lossless webp is about 75% of the size of a png without any loss of quality, I double checked with checksum to verify this too, hence why i use webp instead of png)

I wrote an extension for you that allows you to configure a different file type when using the save buttons
https://github.com/w-e-w/sd-webui-different-save-button-image-format

alternatively if you don't want to install an extension you could modify
the code directly

edit the file modules/ui_common.py
find the function save_files

stable-diffusion-webui/modules/ui_common.py

Lines 64 to 82 in 82a973c

	def save_files(js_data, images, do_make_zip, index):
	filenames = []
	fullfns = []
	parsed_infotexts = []
	# quick dictionary to class object conversion. Its necessary due apply_filename_pattern requiring it
	class MyObject:
	def __init__(self, d=None):
	if d is not None:
	for key, value in d.items():
	setattr(self, key, value)
	data = json.loads(js_data)
	p = MyObject(data)
	path = shared.opts.outdir_save
	save_to_dirs = shared.opts.use_save_to_dirs_for_ui
	extension: str = shared.opts.samples_format
	start_index = 0

and find the line

stable-diffusion-webui/modules/ui_common.py

Line 81 in 82a973c

extension: str = shared.opts.samples_format

if you want to change it to wepb then modify it to

    extension: str = 'wepb'

save and restart web ui
