GIF ReSpeed

This is a tool that can be used to speed up / slow down .GIF files. This file is meant for GIF89a files (but 87a files will work most of the time as well)

There's not much more to it. I decided to create one because the only other way I found was uploading my gifs to some weird site and having to wait half an hour before I had to download my 60MB gif file again.

How to use

Simply drag / drop a .gif file onto the program. Indicate the desired framerate and within a matter of seconds your GIF will go FAF or SAF!

For advanced use open CMD and enter python GIF_ReSpeed.py [fileLocation] [args] if [fileLocation] is not indicated the program will ask the user for a file location. Optional arguments can be passed in the [args] argument. Possible arguments are:

• -r : This will overwrite the original file. This introduces the danger of corruption so it is not adviced to use this.
• -o : This will open the converted file after conversion (Windows only)
• -f : This will iterate through an entire folder. All .gif files in this folder will be converted to the desired framerate

Changelog

1.0.3

• Added -f argument. This will convert all files in the given [fileLocation] folder. In this case the user should indicate a folder location and not a file location
• Fixed -r.

1.0.2

• Added arguments. See the "How to use" for explanation.
• Gif_ReSpeed will now make a copy of the file and adjust its framerate to prevent accidental corruption. (The original file can still be overwritten using the -r argument)

Requirements

This program uses no extra packages besides the default os, path and time packages. Neat isn't it :)
