AVIF Optimization
Configure AVIF image delivery to reduce JPG file sizes and improve performance by dynamically serving AVIF images to supported browsers.
AVIF Optimization enables Medianova CDN to dynamically convert eligible JPG, JPEG, and PNG images to AVIF and deliver them to supported browsers. AVIF reduces image file sizes while maintaining visual quality.
Conversion occurs during content delivery, so the original images at the origin remain unchanged.
You can manage AVIF using the Medianova Control Panel
