gifsync

Maps frames of a gif to audio based on its amplitude.

Usage

As with many multimedia programs, ffmpeg is required. Here are a couple guides.

You'll also want ImageMagick installed if you plan on using the liquid rescale ("content-aware scale") effect.

Setup

Gifsync currently isn't on PyPI since it's in an early state, but it can be run like a typical Python app. After cloning the repo:

pip install poetry  # if you don't already have it
poetry install

It's also worth making sure that you have ffmpeg in your PATH.

$ ffmpeg -version
ffmpeg version 3.4.6-0ubuntu0.18.04.1 Copyright (c) 2000-2019 the FFmpeg developers
<...>

Usage

For more info on tweaking the result, use the --help/-h flag. Basic usage is illustrated below.

poetry run python -m gifsync \
    -a in_audio.mp3 \
    -g in_gif.gif \
    -o out_video.mp4
