- avconv
- gifsicle
If you're on Ubuntu:
apt-get install gifsicle libav-tools
Turns out avconv flags a comparable to ffmpeg:
avconv -i video.ogv -r 10 -s 700x420 -pix_fmt rgb24 -f gif - | gifsicle --optimize=3 --delay=3 > video.gif
Notable Flags:
r
sets the max frames per seconds
sets the frame size (resize)
Excellent. I have easily converted a MKV not recognised by chrome to a GIF with this gist.
avconv -i chrome_console.mkv -r 5 -pix_fmt rgb24 -f gif - | gifsicle --optimize=3 --delay=20 > chrome_console.gif
