Arrange animated gifs

[Rye]

Is what this tool does: https://ezgif.com/combine

Possible with imagemagick ? (taking two animated gifs and place them next to each other )

Note: I'm not looking to "put the frames of the gifs next to each other" (as described here: viewtopic.php?t=22117)
Thanks in advance:

If the two animations have the same number of frames and delays, then Imagemagick can do that. See https://imagemagick.org/Usage/anim_mods/#append. But that reference is good also. So why not try to do the same. If you have trouble, post your code and animations and we can try to help further.

Code: Select all

convert animation1.gif animation2.gif +append -layer optimize animation3.gif

Hah, you broke a new speed record .

Nice. That is exactly what I was looking for. Looks good, the images both have the same dimensions and frame number.

(I wonder. That website, does it use imagemagick aswell ?)


EDIT: I get a "-layer" command not recognized error (both with "convert" and "magick")

EDIT2: Upgraded to the latest version available (ImageMagick-7.0.8-24-Q16-x64-dll.exe)

yet, still get the "-layers not recognized" error... (Now the Error code is 2123)
(PerlMagick always fails to install on my machine, but this is probably not related to the -layers issue, right ?)

What... is this due to ?
