That must be it Stephen ... and the latest version of Photoshop produced the same dialogue (image attached). In your first script, you had compression parameters:
// Compression parameters = "compressionLossless" | "compressionLossy"
descriptor2.putEnumerated(s2t("compression"), s2t("WebPCompression"), s2t(compType)); // string variable
var WebPCompIsLossless = false; // set the default flag for compression
if (WebPCompIsLossless == false) {
// 0 (lowest lossy quality) - 100 (highest lossy quality)
descriptor2.putInteger(s2t("quality"), compValue); // number variable
}
I don't see those in the second script, and the Photoshop dialogue is asking for a compression setting before saving in the pop up. If you add that language to your second script, would that fix the issue??
The second script just saves, it assumes that the WebP values are known from the file metadata, which worked for my test files...but who knows how your WebP files were saved.
Yes, the entire save as WebP function would need to be used.
l'll look into it later...
