Why can you not rename the files or convert them into new files with proper alphabetic order. Lots of different sequences in lots of different folders. I've asked this same question elsewhere and the (sometimes harsh) answers focus on renaming. I appreciate that this is an option but I want to know...

I'm using Imagemagick on Ubuntu Linux and I'm attempting to convert sequentially named files into a gif animation. Usually this is an easy operation and only requires that I run something like convert input-*.png output.gif . However, the filenames don't have leading zeros and so the animation order...

convert images*.png -loop 0 newgif.gif Does it make any difference if you add a specific delay. Some viewer cannot handle an animation with zero or less than some minimum delay. Your GIF animation shows a 100 delay. But the IM animation has no delay set. You can see that from the verbose informatio...

fmw42 wrote:(re-)post your IM exact IM command (if different from your earlier post) to create this gif and your version of IM and platform.

From a folder full of pngs I ran

Code: Select all

convert images*.png -loop 0 newgif.gif

I'm running Imagemagick 6.7.7.10 on Ubuntu 13.10

Is there an attribute in the gif made by GIMP that is not being set when made in imagemagick? Are you saying that you can create an animation in GIMP that loops multiple time in Pure Data? If so, then I suspect that GIMP is doing something special. The IM developers would have to look further into ...

Yes, they do. Time to hit the Pure Data bug reporter, then!

magick wrote:Add -loop 0 on your command-line. That tells the GIF animation to loop forever.

It still only plays once in Pure Data even if I use the -loop 0 option.

I'm trying to diagnose a problem with another program that may be caused by a defect in imagemagick. I'm running pd extended 0.43.4 on Ubuntu 13.10. I've install gmerlin in order to play animated gifs within that program. If I play gifs made in imagemagick they only play once and don't loop. If I pl...

Is it possible to use ImageMagick (on Linux) to create random geometric shapes, like the ones below?

Ideally I'd want to be able to run a script and each time it create an image with a different shape in it. Can this be done?

hellocatfood

As far as I know, IM has no special command to skip frames. You would most likely have to write a script loop to select the list of all the png images you wanted and then use the list as input for convert to make the gif animation. However, I am surprised to hear that ffmpeg won't do that, simply b...

I have a video (avi) that I want to convert to an animated gif. ffmpeg/avconv does a bad job of doing it directly, so I instead convert it to a gif by first outputting each frame as a png and then converting back to gif using iamgemagick. The problem is that this results in a large gif in terms of f...

How do you know that Flicker needs a white background. If the above two methods do not work, then making it again with white is not likely to help. What version of IM and what platform? Perhaps you need to upgrade IM.[/quote] From what I can tell Flickr sets the background of any image, transparent ...

hellocatfood

That didn't work either

I may just have to rerender them with a white background instead. It's a shame that Flickr's being so awkward!

hellocatfood

I changed the command so that it set the background to white

Code: Select all

convert tANtN.gif -background white -alpha background tANtN_new.gif

However, when I upload to flickr I now get a completely black image instead of a green background
