[BUG] Twitter gif download? #53

Closed Disorbs closed 2 years ago

Disorbs commented 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When a twitter profile uploads a gif the program detects it as just a jpeg image and downloads it like that rather than a gif.

Describe the solution you'd like would be nice if it can download it as a gif.

Describe alternatives you've considered maybe convert it to a mp4 at least.

I need a profile URL and a post URL containing a gif.

The problem has been identified. The next version will fix it if everything is ok.

AAndyProgram commented 2 years ago

I can only download in mp4. Twitter, as far as I can see, converts gif to mp4 (maybe for compatibility reasons or something) and unfortunately when I try to save this video as a gif, the downloaded file doesn't play.

Fixed. Please update to the latest release.
