Comic cbr with WebP images

Hello,
is Aura One able to read comic in cbr format with WebP images instead of jpg images?

Thanks

I don't know, but my bet would be no. Have you tried? You have an Aura ONE, if it doesn't work, it might reboot the device. The absolute worst case is needing a factory reset.

I love my e-ink reader. I really do.

But, I don't get reading a comic on one. It's just not what they're designed for.

Sorry. That doesn't help with your question at all. Just wandering through giving unwanted opinions...

Maybe it can- CBR is basically just a .zip file of images reformatted into a CBR. But I would be safe and use jpg just in case.

I haven't tried WebP images on my Kobo but the only web browsers that seem to be able to display WebP images are Chrome and it's derivatives (including Opera in that list).

Real Opera also supported WebP, but any browser that supports WebM can display WebP with a clever workaround.
