How to Convert Multiple DDS Images to AVIF?
1. Download and Install reaConverter
reaConverter installs quickly on any Windows PC. No dependencies, no bloatware — just a clean setup that's ready to use immediately. Need edits? Resize, rotate, or add watermarks during conversion.
2. Load your DDS files
Launch reaConverter and load the DDS files you want to convert. Add a few files or thousands, batch processing handles them all.
Drag-and-drop DDSs directly into reaConverter or use the folder browser to load entire directories.
3. Select AVIF as output format
Set AVIF as output format and select where to save your converted files. Customize quality settings if needed.
4. Start DDS to AVIF conversion
Press Convert to begin processing. You can watch the progress or minimize and let it run in the background.
Your converted AVIF files will appear in the destination folder as soon as processing completes.
What changes when you convert DDS to AVIF
DDS and AVIF both compress by discarding data, so this is a re-encode rather than a copy. The output is built from already-compressed pixels, and the artefacts of the first encode are carried into the second. Use a high quality setting, and convert from the original whenever you still have it.
