gif speed is very fast

[xenas]

Hi all, I am a Linux user in which I have used the "convert" command to get a list of images from a .mov file and converting those images into a .gif.

While the process works, whenever I used the ImageMagick application to open the .gif files, the speed that it is playing the .gif is very fast, and there is a need for me to click on the "speed" button followed by the "slower" option so as to match the speed with the .mov.

My question would be wow can I check or ensure that the .gif animation is playing at its 'supposed' speed/ framerate? (Using either the Faster/ Slower speed does not seems to assure me that I am converting my .gif animation correctly..)

Add -delay X to your convert command right after convert and not after reading the input. See http://www.imagemagick.org/script/comma ... .php#delay

Please, always provide your IM version and platform when asking questions, since syntax may differ. Also provide your exact command line and if possible your images.
