#IMAGEMAGICK ANIMATED GIF HOW TO#
To overrride the default settings, specify the required parameters, for example: Many of the questions asking how to create an animated gif from a set of png images suggest to use a variant of ImageMagick's convert command: convert -delay 2 -loop 0. Next time you want to transform a set of photos into an animated GIF, switch to the directory with the photos, and run the gif command. To automate the process of generating an animated GIF, add the following function to the ~/.bashrc file:Ĭonvert -delay "$delay" -loop 0 *"$ext" "$output" The delay parameter specifies the delay between frames in milliseconds, while the loop parameter determines how many times the animation runs (the 0 value will run the loop infinitely). Generating an animated GIF then is a matter of running the following command: Since there is little point in turning full-resolution photos into an animated GIF, resize the source images: This renames the photos using their date and time data to ensure the correct image sequence. In the terminal, switch to the directory containing the photos you want to assemble into an animated GIF, and run the following command: If you happen to use openSUSE, run the sudo zypper in ImageMagick jhead command.
#IMAGEMAGICK ANIMATED GIF INSTALL#
To install these tools on Debian and Ubuntu, run the sudo install imagemagick jhead command. Generating animated GIFs can be done using ImageMagick and jhead. They can also come in rather handy when you want to whip up a quick-and-dirty slideshow that can be viewed on any platform or create a timelapse animation from a sequence of images with a minimum of effort. What you are seeing is a seizure inducing animation that we created for our series, Superusers: The Legendary GNU/Linux Show, which I strongly encourage you to watch if you are interested in Linux, free open-source software, and the surreal. Here is my basic ImageMagick command: exec (' convert elephantupload.gif -strip -resize 600圆00 elephantoutput. This tutorial demonstrates how to create animated GIFs from a PNG sequence using ImageMagick and the command line on Linux. Some work great, others get messed up as seen in the attached example.
Animated GIFs are not only good for sharing funny cat videos. 1 I am trying to upload some animated GIFs.
