Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Usability Group: Latest release Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: jack_spratt (jack_spratt) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Rendered GIF file size is huge Initial Comment: When rendering my web banner animation (lasting less than 20 seconds) to GIF, the resulting filesize is more than 6mb. I think that part of the problem is caused by the fact that synfig outputs the same number of frames per second regardless of whether there is movement of not - regardless of whether extra frames are needed. My animation is a web banner which remains static for several blocks of 4s so that text can be read. During these periods just one frame is necessary, not many per second, which take up extra space. It would be great if there were some option, maybe 'size optimise' or something that will detect when there is no change to the animation over a period and just use one, rather than multiple frames for that. Compare this behaviour to doing animation in Gimp where one chooses the display time of a frame (layer) in ms. This drastically reduces the filesize of animations produced by gimp. My animation ended up larger than 6mb from synfig, but the advertisers' restrictions for this web banner project were 30kb in size! Thus this presents a serious problem for web orientated graphics in particular. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Konstantin Dmitriev (zelgadis_ksee) Date: 2012-12-26 04:17 Message: This bugtracker is no longer active.

It produces very best results than the Synfig built in gif renderer. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=757416&aid=3081379&group_id=144022 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LogMeIn Rescue: Anywhere, Anytime Remote support for IT.
