I haven't looked closely into the HEIF format, but would presume that it's not trivial to get the required information for getimagesize() and friends. As such, bundling a small library like libavifinfo is probably the best we can do, but we should not forget to keep that up to date. However, I wouldn't know if there is such a library. Bundling the full libheif is certainly not an option. Christoph
