I would also love such kind of implementation. Under Windows I am using ScreenToGif very frequently and I think this would be a great addition to Spectacle. As far as I understood there "just" needs to happen an additional step after the video recording which takes the frames and creates the GIF out of it. So for example if using ffmpeg would be an option a simple ffmpeg -i "$source_video" -filter_complex "fps=15" -an "$output_gif" could do it. https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kpipewire/-/merge_requests/180 https://invent.kde.org/graphics/spectacle/-/merge_requests/425 The MRs I linked also add support for animated WebP, which is a vastly superior animated image format. |
