Thus, making the GIF appear slower than it is. When it displays a GIF, it will only display a GIF at 100ms or higher frame delay. For the in-app preview of a GIF, GIF Brewery uses something Apple calls NSImageView. Okay, so I went with 42ms, but it GIF Brewery seems to be displaying it slowly. If you just want the silkiest smooth GIF, then go with 42ms or lower. It also means that frame count is simply 10 x (clip length), which you can hopefully do without a calculator. That means you'll only have 10 frames per second, which makes for a smaller GIF. Well, if you are at all concerned about file size (I'm looking at you, Tumblr), I'd suggest 100ms. So, the frame count should be 2 x 24 = 48 frames. That means you'll want 24 frames per second. You've selected a 2 second clip from a video and set your frame delay to 42 ms. Then simply multiply the frames per second by the length of your clip (in seconds) Huh? Once you've selected your frame delay, convert it to frames per second with the above equation. Once I've got my frame delay, what about frame count? Your math teacher didn't know you wanted to create nice GIFs.
No one said there would be math involved.ĭeal with it. In other words, if you set the frame delay to 100ms, it will show 10 of your frames every second.įor reference, (frames per second) = (1000) / (frame delay). Really! 42ms is equivalent to 24fps, while 100ms is equivalent to 10fps. I'm personally a fan of 100ms, but 42ms is another popular option. so a good frame count is what?Īctually, we want to choose the frame delay first. So, if you selected a five second portion of a video, you'll create a five second GIF. So, how do I choose a good frame count and delay?īefore choosing, I'll make the assumption that you want the duration of your GIF to equal the duration of your clip. Frame Delay The length of time that each of the frames will be displayed in the GIF. What are the frame count and frame delay settings? Frame Count The number of frames between the start and end times that GIF Brewery will extract from your video. A very important aspect of GIF creation with GIF Brewery is perfecting your frame count / delay choice.
