Legacy ImageMagick Discussions Archive

A couple of thoughts, although this was done on an old-ish linux netbook (Bodhi 1) and IM 6.6.2 so a bit different from CentOS The svg contains a linked image rather than an embedded image - the url that ends. '..MrJB_Birthday_Cake2.png' For some purpose I can not figure out, there is a circular cli...

Is that correct? Using convert in.png reference.png -dither -remap out.png I get an error convert: unrecognized dither method `-remap' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/1285 Looking at the documents -dither takes a switch so convert in.png -dither None -remap reference.png out.png works but what...

As snibgo says there are many options that come with ffmpeg and 'avi' is just a wrapper format. Includes everything from uncompressed video thro' xvid to mp4's which unless you specify something, is what you get. I have just popped IM into a Win7 VM and the ffmpeg that comes with it is more than ade...

Had a quick look at how I might do it in linux. I would need to dig out my M$DOS book for a windows batch file. Using PClinuxOS here and ImageMagick 6.8.0 Need to +append in the command (I thought it was assumed?) ie. convert frame1a.png frame1b.png +append newframe.png A quick-n-dirty bash file, ea...

I can get you (the ffmpeg) part of the way there individual frames ffmpeg -i inputfile.avi -f image2 image-%07d.png make a video from a sequence of stills ffmpeg -r 15 -b 1000 -i image-%07d.png test.avi where -r is the framerate - keep it the same as the original(s). and -b is the required bitrate T...

Just for info: using PClinuxOS and Version: ImageMagick 6.8.0-2 2013-04-13 Q16 http://www.imagemagick.org Copyright: Copyright (C) 1999-2012 ImageMagick Studio LLC Features: OpenMP This is the output $ identify CEF_8686000047.Tif CEF_8686000047.Tif[0] TIFF 747x1174 747x1174+0+0 8-bit sRGB 278KB 0.00...

I don't know that it is possible with IM The whole point missed in the above is that gif is limited to 256 colours and apng not. This takes you to most of the resources. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APNG edit: sorry missed out the link http://littlesvr.ca/apng/ The java application would do it for y...

I use linux but the obvious question Did you download a precompiled package or a tarball for compiling? A quick look around for 'precompiled' came up this this which is probably typical (although old) http://www.aljex.com/bkw/sco/ Very similar to linux except linux is not in 'local' but is /usr/bin ...

I just found the same where no IM is involved. Using PCLOS & Gimp 2.8.2 An image with an alpha layer. A selection made and deleted (ie 'background deleted) but only one layer, no hidden layers. Saved as an xcf and also exported as a png. Opened the png in a linux app 'fotoxx' no transparency and...

bump Can someone help this guy out, he originally posted in a Gimp mailing list. Of course Gimp will not open a 12 bit image so a IM '-depth 8' command works..but Then the scaling question comes up and I am an engineer, so photo-micrographs of cells are a bit out of my league. AFAIK in Gimp using si...

@agriz I had a quick search and it looks like you are using Fedora. What can you do with ffmpeg (for windows users, a 'slightly limited' version comes with IM). First thing is transitions, forget these. It is possible using a video frame-server called Avisynth. A windows application, does run with W...

A video file on its own does not loop. Some players have an option to loop indefinitely. VLC is one.
If you wanted a certain number of loops, you would need to join together copies of the same video clip.

IM can convert animations to mpeg video (uses ffmpeg) but for a slideshow + transitions + various output incl flv (why flv?) try

As well as the above To decompose an avi file to individual frames you can use ffmpeg on a command line. The windows version of imagemagick comes with its own (slim) version, if you use linux there will be (a better version) in your distro repository. the command is; ffmpeg -i inputfile.avi -f image...

Sorry about being off topic and none-imagemagick. Maybe the OP should consider a mosaic making application. This one is using metapixel in linux, andrea mosaic for windows works as well. http://i.imgur.com/YDyuB.jpg The randomness (if you can call it random) comes from the source image - I overlayed...
