Polish e-books ( a Calibre standard tool) can do that. Just add it to the Toolbar of choice from Preferences: behavior: toolbars

Some major drawbacks to this way of lossless compression are that it does every possible format in the listing and not just the one you want and you cannot specify how much to recompress the images. So you don't get the recompression.

Also, re: lossless compression - in general, running it can paradoxically increase the filesize. If the image is already compressed (ever tried putting a zip file inside another zip file?), or if it's sufficiently complex that the compressor can't efficiently smoosh it down. I think Polish ePub might account for this by not replacing if there's no net reduction, but I'm not 100% on that.

lossless vs lossy
What would make it REALLY useful would be if you could specify lossy compression – but from what I can tell, the polish command does not allow that

That is something Modify ePub does not do and I don't even know if it's possible to do. Your solution is to use the editor to recompress the graphics.

I modified the cover for an epub and tried to use Modify Epub to update the cover.

I just ran into two epubs which give the same error as in my message on 2020-Dec-18.

Does this version fix it? TBH it looks like it never would have worked but I am highly suspicious of that given the time passed. It seems to fail because an image that "looks like a cover" wasn't originally identified as one.
