Do you want a screensaver with a animation or what?
gif to lua converter
There's no such software yet for MineOS. You can be the pathfinder and develop your own format <3
Trailblazer would be a more fitting word.
Ideas on how to store simple animations: First frame is a regular picture, but adds number of frames animation plays along with width height definitions After first frame, store changes in the original image, not just more images. Storing multiple images would work, but it would take up more disk space in most cases and would probably be slower than just updating existing data Each change block starts by telling how many changes happen so the computer knows where to stop, then can either do one of couple of things in general:
- Do basically what OCIF6 does and store pixel changes in groups with changes in the x y positions - Would probably be fast in some cases, but slower in others
- Store image library commands to modify the image - Would probably be slower than option 1, but would be (when animation to format is efficient) less disk space and less time reading files
- Store rectangular chunks of images moving, maybe combined with parts of previous steps - Probably more disk space efficient than one, but probably slow.
Most certainly more efficient methods are possible, but these are ideas for if anyone want to take a jab at trying to implement this. I think the most difficult thing would be the system that would convert the gifs to this new format efficiently. Luckily, that will probably never happen on a MineOS computer itself, so you wouldn't have to worry about memory, space, or time, as much anyways. It always matters to some extent, but we can be ok with inefficient stuff to some extent with so much power at our disposal.

you can use Python language with PIL
module to convert.
Well, not to convert on its own, but definitely would be able to load in the images and allow you to convert them.

this is not an issue regarding mineos. gif to lua converters do not exist, as lua is a language used outside minecraft. go on and try create your own. by now, close this issue.
okay:(
uh not you
i asked the author. kind of a misunderstanding
you can reopen if you want
haha
