My application needs to convert frame data from its internal format of BGR24 to palletized 8-bit data so that it can generate a colour animated GIF. Is there a function in the FFmpeg libraries to do this?
I tried creating an SwsContext and using sws_scale(), but an output format of AV_PIX_FMT_PAL8 is not by sws_getCachedContext(). I understand that creating a suitable optimised palette for a frame is non-trivial but would have thought that this must have been done many times before. Therefore I just wanted to check it if a function to do this already exists before I bite the bullet and write my own version.
