i am not sure what you mean exactly, but u might try: convert -dispose previous image_1 image_2 -loop 0 image_out
Imagemagick does not compress gif's well. You might wanne use gifsicle for that: gifSicle.exe -b --colors 255 -O2 oie_animation.gif Regards, Marcel sponsored link: http://www.online-image-editor.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marcus" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, March 02, 2006 13:52 Subject: [magick-users] animated gif of a sequence of screenshots > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Hi all, > > I am trying to create an animated gif of a sequence of screenshots. > > My attempts so far using various methods have resulted in very large gifs. > By examing them it appears that each frame is not subtracting the previous image correctlty. > > Let't say I have two images: > > image1 : 'A B ' > image2 : 'A B C' > > I believe what I'm trying to achieve in a gif animation is: > image1 : 'A B ' = 'A B ' > image2-1: ' C' = 'A B C' > > By what I understand so far of the commands, I'd have though that the following > command would produce image2-1: > > $ convert image1 -dispose previous image2 image2-1 > > However, image2-1 == image1 > > I've tried many combinations and permutations without success. > My understanding of the fundamental idea is probably flawed. > > Can anyone point me in the right direction? > > What influence do the image formats have? > (Ive tried jpg, png and gif) > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) > > iD8DBQFEBuqrjJWyUPVTiJwRArqTAJ9m3zBCV+DJtNKBiNjDRnA8YQVe5QCgueLj > 5o/Ez4Wy8RB17xO50sesWbQ= > =7+aG > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > _______________________________________________ > Magick-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://studio.imagemagick.org/mailman/listinfo/magick-users _______________________________________________ Magick-users mailing list [email protected] http://studio.imagemagick.org/mailman/listinfo/magick-users
