A script to transform Animated Webp files into Webm files. Tested on Windows only. Depends on ffmpeg and libwebp. Make sure to add them to your PATH.

aww.js

/**
 * This script transforms animated webp files which are not widely supported yet
 * to simple animated webm. Please state the source of your share this.
 *
 * # How this works
 * This script depends on ffmpeg and libwebp provided by Google. Make sure
 * they're in your PATH.
 *
 * The way this works is based off this answer https://askubuntu.com/a/1141049.
 * It starts by extracting the input webp frames to a ./frames directory and,
 * using webpmux, determines whether it's actually animated or not. If it is
 * animated then it proceeds to use ffmpeg to create a webm based on the
 * extracted frames. Cleanup is done after the script finishes successfully.
 *
 * It also takes a switch that determines whether you want to permanently delete
 * the original animated webp file.

 * libwebp: https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/docs/precompiled
 * ffmpeg: https://ffmpeg.org/

I am currently searching the reversed thing

@enzomtpYT I never did that but you can probably just switch up the extensions in the script and have it work just as well
