Extract Frames from GIF and Convert to Video Using ImageMagick and FFMPEG
Step 1: Extract Frames from GIF
To extract frames from an animated GIF file using ImageMagick's "convert" command, use the following syntax:
``` convert INPUTgif -coalesce -layers OptimizePlus output%d.png ``` * "INPUTgif" is the input GIF file. * "-coalesce" merges all frames into a single image sequence. * "-layers OptimizePlus" optimizes the output frames for quality. * "output%d.png" specifies the output file name format with incrementing numbers.Step 2: Convert Frames to MP4
Once you have extracted the frames, use FFMPEG to convert them into an H264 MP4 video:
``` ffmpeg -f image2 -i output%d.png -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -pix_fmt yuv420p output.mp4 ``` * "-f image2" specifies the input format as image sequence. * "-i output%d.png" specifies the input image sequence. * "-c:v libx264" specifies the video codec as H264. * "-crf 18" sets the video quality (lower is better). * "-pix_fmt yuv420p" sets the pixel format for the output video. * "output.mp4" is the output MP4 file name.
