Additional information

Output customisation

In addition to the supported image properties, a gif property can be set to customise the output gif. Here is the available option:

Frame Rate Configuration FPS (Frames Per Second)

• Property name : fps

• Default: 9 fps

• Range: 2-9 fps

Repeat

Duplicate frame removal generates a lighter file without compromising visual quality. This optimization technique reduces file size by eliminating redundant image data while preserving the GIF visual integrity.

• Property name : repeat

• Default: -1 The GIF will repeat indefinitely.

• Value 0: Play only once.

• Value of 1: Play twice. And so on.

Configuration Example:

"gif": {
 "fps": 8,
 "repeat": 3
}
