Hello,
I'm trying to create a .gif (from a video clip) using GIMP. I've been able to do everything, but when it comes time to view my finished product it undergoes a massive slowdown. Here's what I did, step by step.
Use MediaCoder (Ver. 0.7.0 Build 4385) to pick out a few seconds from the full length video.
Muted the clip.
Transcoded into AVI.
Used GIMP's "Split Video into Frames" option to attain the frames. (Changing only the destination for the frames and "Audiotrack" to 0)
Used the "Playback" option to review, and select the exact frames necessary, deleting the excess.
Used the "Frames to Image" leaving all options alone.
Used "Scale Image" to reduce the dimensions slightly.
Then went and saved (using "Save As"), inputting the .gif extension. Selected "Save as Animation".
Left all other options alone.
It looks perfectly fine under GIMP's playback option, yet if I go over to my folder and preview it there, that image is sluggish and choppy. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
