- 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- GIFs are outdated and not optimized for the modern web.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.
