  • Animated images are unique due to their quick, loopy, and automatic nature.
  • GIFs are outdated and not optimized for the modern web.
  • AVIF offers a better solution with its animation mode.
  • FFMPEG can be used to create animated AVIF files.
  • Install FFMPEG with: `sudo apt install ffmpeg`.
  • Process involves clipping a video or using an existing GIF.
  • Convert input video to Y4M format with FFMPEG.
  • Optionally limit size and framerate during conversion.
  • Encode the Y4M file into AVIF using libsvtav1 codec.
  • Direct conversion might have issues; staging to Y4M first is recommended.
