Add color palette generation #3

Open dcloud opened 5 years ago

dcloud commented 5 years ago

Generate a color palette from the clip first, then use that to aid in making a better quality gif. See https://engineering.giphy.com/how-to-make-gifs-with-ffmpeg/:

$ ffmpeg -i StickAround.mp4 -filter_complex "[0:v] palettegen" palette.png
$ ffmpeg -i StickAround.mp4 -i palette.png -filter_complex "[0:v][1:v] paletteuse" prettyStickAround.gif

But will need to do a bit more than that (incorporate framerate, other args)
