The WebP Animated to WebM Converter is a program designed to facilitate the conversion of animated WebP images into WebM format. This tool aims to address common issues encountered with other converters available on the internet, such as desaturated colors, low quality, and improper frame playback.
The purpose of this converter is to ensure a seamless and accurate conversion process while maintaining the vibrancy and fidelity of the original animated WebP image.
-
Preservation of Color Accuracy: The converter is specifically designed to retain the original color saturation of animated WebP images during the conversion process. This ensures that the resulting WebM file accurately represents the original colors of the animation.
-
High-Quality Output: The converter employs advanced algorithms to ensure high-quality output in the resulting WebM file. It optimizes the conversion process to preserve as much detail as possible, resulting in a visually appealing and crisp final output.
-
Frame-by-Frame Playback: Unlike many other converters, the WebP Animated to WebM Converter ensures proper frame-by-frame playback of the animated WebP image. Each frame is correctly displayed in sequence, maintaining the intended animation flow without overlapping or stacking issues.
To run this program, you will need the following:
- Operating System: The converter is compatible with Windows.
- Python: Ensure you have Python 3.x installed on your system.
- Dependencies: This script doesn't use typical python library, instead binary execuable is used.
Please download the following execuable:
- https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/download
- https://www.gyan.dev/ffmpeg/builds/ (Recommended to install the full version, because I haven't test whether the essential ffmpeg will work)
Remember to change the following path variables in order for this script to work
- file
- pathToWebpmux (located in grep_file_info function)
- extractedPath (located in extract_animated_webp function)
- source (The folder path should be same as the extractedPath variable, located in the render function)
- endOutput (located in the render function)
- pathToFFMPEG (located in the render function)
In python, for any path, you need to use \\ to represent a layer of folder
For example if the file path is: "C:\Users\sam\Downloads\WebP_Animated_Extractor".
Please change it to "C:\\Users\\sam\\Downloads\\WebP_Animated_Extractor"
