Create overlay animated gif from youtube video stills on Windows 10 with freeware
I have a one-time need to create an animated GIF overlay on Windows from a
YouTube animation. I just did it the first way I thought of doing it. I just ask your advice on how to improve the process using basic freeware on Windows. 1 Here is the original youtube video animation. "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pSayVWAVgI" 2 Here are a few hundred same-sized JPEG screenshots every 1/10th of a second using Irfanview freeware automation on Windows. "http://oi64.tinypic.com/28tl6k2.jpg" 3 Here is the new layer that will be overlayed onto each of those JPG screenshots drawn with Paint.net freeware. "http://oi66.tinypic.com/309u074.jpg" 4 Here is that same overlay file with the underlying layer removed so the only layer left is the red lined boundary PDN file I want superimposed on every screenshot (this file is a GIF only because the PDN would not upload). "http://oi63.tinypic.com/2zodfso.jpg" 5 In Irfanview batch mode, I use "Add watermark image" to batch overlay the single-layer boundary.pdn on top of every screenshot JPG file. "http://oi66.tinypic.com/rseec1.jpg" 6 Assemble the JPGs into an animated GIF using ffmpeg from Imagemagick freeware on Windows. The convert command on Windows doesn't seem to be from Imagemagick. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...of-jpeg-images https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...-stack-of-jpgs c:\ convert -delay 15 -loop 0 *.jpg animation.gif So I'm stuck using ffmpeg which is from Imagemagick. c:\ ffmpeg -f image2 -framerate 9 -i *.jpg out.gif The last step is the part that isn't working since the files aren't being found and all the help uses confusing %% syntax. |
