i tried this. it works fine on linux, so i'm a little confused why it would fail on windows. i have no windows dev env so i can't look into it more sadly.

hey spiff, I have probably a similar problem, here is my log:

Could this be related?
https://github.com/strukturag/libheif/issues/90

Otherwise, any way to help out with more logging or with debugging environment?

No idea but perhaps more likely https://github.com/strukturag/libheif/issues/208 which was fixed by https://github.com/strukturag/libde265/pull/257

Thank you, that sounds plausible. In my case these pictures are from iOS devices as well.

Maybe that issue could give @spiff a clue as to what could be going wrong, assuming it is connected that is.

I tried building the official addon in github xbmc repo for Leia but with 1.0.8 libde265 instead of 1.0.5. However the only thing I end up with is "%1 is not a valid Win32 ...." while loading the DLL for picture display in Kodi... Help...

OK seems like that was due to trying a 32bit DLL on 64bit kodi.

Finally have HEIC/HEIF pics from iPhone working in Kodi Leia. Here is the commit: https://github.com/kongomongo/imagedecoder.heif/commit/1e6740a058c967229e8481b63290592a4c348942

I am not sure anymore if the bump to libheif or the libde265 made it working due to tedious build issues as a newb...

But its finally working.

Could you please compile a zip to be installed on Windows 10 Kodi 18?

While I don't feel great putting binaries up, if you trust this you can try these (install via "install zip addon")
