This is a feature NOT a bug. "display" is for display of single frames AS IS with delays suitable for slide show usage. IT is NOT ment for fast animations but image displaying. "animate" will animate GIF animations properly with the the right displosal methods AND with the right timings. However it is a little slower on startup as it has to decode the GIF animation frames for display purposes. For more information see IM Examples, Basics http://imagemagick.org/Usage/basics/#display http://imagemagick.org/Usage/basics/#animate Also look at the shell script, that generates a two image flicker comparision animation, to find subtle differences between images. http://imagemagick.org/Usage/scripts/flicker_cmp This script works by generating a pipeline of the commands compare, montage and animate!!! As I iterated before, There is NO offical repository for scripts. Individuals create some repositories, of versiou stuff as what one person finds useful, others need to modify before they can use. This includes... * Some Examples Scripts installed in '/usr/share/docs/...' as part of the IM installation (or in the IM sources). * IM Examples, Shell Scripts area, for scripts detailed in or used by the example pages. * Ron Savages Perl 'Hax' http://savage.net.au/ImageMagick.html * And some complex image processing scripts by the New Usaer (but long time image researcher) Fred Weinhaus http://www.fmwconcepts.com/imagemagick/ * PHP using the Command Line API by Anthony 'Bonzo' and his RubbleWeb pages... http://www.rubblewebs.co.uk/imagemagick/ * RMagick Examples http://rmagick.rubyforge.org/ Which includes the original form that became -polaroid in the MagickCore And so on, with other examples, some with and without the actual code used.
