in a more simpler what that do it frame by frame

Can you explain more what you have in mind ?

When videos are played, timg has to send them frame-by-frame to the terminal, as it is only possible to show one frame at at time in terminals.

A subset of the full-resolution terminals have some limited support for animations, but even that would only work if you have a few frames, or send a huuuge blob of data over the network at first (as the terminal can be via a remote ssh-session). Even if special-casing shorter animations, it will be more a compatibility nightmare.

Sorry for the low clarity, I meant if we can save the output into a new video that looks like in the terminal, but in a normal video player...
