any way to get facesub to recognize and play animated gifs?

kylemcdonald commented 11 years ago

heh, no. sorry :)

OF can load GIFs fine (with ofVideoPlayer) but it would require some restructuring of the app. GIFs are more like videos than images, so you would need to rewrite the way facesub works to support ofVideoPlayer rather than ofImage. that means tracking the face from the file once per frame, then using that in the substitution process.

going to close this because it's a feature request that i see as outside the scope of the app :) but if you get it working let me know, that sounds hilarious ;)
