Even though this is an optional dependency, I looked into this a little while back and came up with this:
AVIF is a (new?) image file format. Have a look here: https://aomediacodec.github.io/av1-avif/ If you do want to give installing/building a go, have a look here: https://github.com/AOMediaCodec/libavif I didn't bother with it any further, having no need for this specific image format atm. Hope this helps.
