Creating GIFs from .MOV files in OSX using FFmpeg and ImageMagick

Convert MOV to GIF using FFmpeg and ImageMagick

I tried a few different techniques to make a GIF via command-line and the following gives me the best control of quality and size. Once you're all setup, you'll be pumping out GIFs in no time!

Preparation

Install FFmpeg

  • $ brew install ffmpeg [all your options]
    • Example: $ brew install ffmpeg --with-fdk-aac --with-ffplay --with-freetype --with-frei0r --with-libass --with-libvo-aacenc --with-libvorbis --with-libvpx --with-opencore-amr --with-openjpeg --with-opus --with-rtmpdump --with-schroedinger --with-speex --with-theora --with-tools

Install ImageMagick

Python script to find the largest files in a git repository.
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
# Python script to find the largest files in a git repository.
# The general method is based on the script in this blog post:
# http://stubbisms.wordpress.com/2009/07/10/git-script-to-show-largest-pack-objects-and-trim-your-waist-line/
#
# The above script worked for me, but was very slow on my 11GB repository. This version has a bunch
# of changes to speed things up to a more reasonable time. It takes less than a minute on repos with 250K objects.
