Save Gif don't work #44

Closed heiger1949 closed 4 years ago

heiger1949 commented 5 years ago

Please help ! Gifcurry looks great, but saving the gif always brings: "Didn't work. Check your settings." I use Ubuntu Linux 16.04. Thanks

Hello,

What is the output when you run Gifcurry from the terminal?

heiger1949 commented 5 years ago

??? I do not know how to use the termninal. I only use graphical programs.

lettier commented 5 years ago

Hello,

open-terminal

To run Gifcurry from the terminal:

1) Right-click on the desktop and select "Open Terminal". You can also press Ctrl+Alt+t and a terminal window will open. 2) From the command prompt, type:

gifcurry

If that doesn't work, type:

gifcurry_gui

3) Use Gifcurry as you would normally and make note of the messages being printed in the terminal window.

Thank You, but typing gifcurry or gifcurry_gui brings "Befehl nicht gefunden."(command not found) I've tried to change to the directory where gifcurry is installed - cd brings "Befehl nicht gefunden." and man cd brings "Kein Eintrag zu cd im Handbuch". Should I delete gifcurry and install it new ?

@lettier After I installed gifcurry new it works brillant ! Thank's for this useful tool !

Did you use the AppImage executable? In any case, this sounds possibly like the issue I had.. The ImageMagick that comes with Ubuntu has rather restrictive policies set. I had to increase some of the sizes.

@wilx I use AppImage.

Imagemagick seems a trash implementation by now, because even after changing my policy values it throws some a bunch of exceptions. Also, why not link the ffmpeg utility to do the whole thing with the codecs within the program? I'm going to stick to the CLI because that was what was working... Tried the old procedure with ffmpeg and no issues. Wonder what's about IM
