Hi Peeter, It is great to know that someone is using the tool :-)
In the 1.6.6 release the h52gif and gif2h5 converters were rewritten to use High-Level Image APIs (http://www.hdfgroup.org/HDF5/doc/HL/RM_H5IM.html) that can handle palettes stored in an HDF5 file. Apparently (to be verified) -p became obsolete and was removed without proper announcement and documentation. Are you getting the expected behavior with the 1.8.10 version (except -p option, of course)? If not, please report the issues to [email protected] and we will go from there. Thank you!
