Support animated GIFs - Githubissues

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Currently, Thumbnailator does not support animated GIFs.

As seen from the star count in Issue 30 (as of February 23, 2014, there are 7) 
there is a lot of interest to supporting animated GIFs.

However, due to constraints on the internal design and implementation of 
Thumbnailator, it may take some time to add support for animated GIFs.

In the meantime, I want to gather resources (code samples, etc.) which will be 
helpful in expediting the implementation of the animated GIF output using the 
Image I/O API once the support for animated images (multiple images) is added 
to Thumbnailator.

Here is what I have so far (see attachments).
Same problem here, even though I desperately need to support animated GIFs, I 
still have tasks of higher priority on my list. 
I've done some research, and this is the best I could find so far. Hope it 
helps.
