image_write_video(image, path = NULL, framerate = 10, ...) image_write_gif(image, path = NULL, delay = 1/10, ...)

Arguments

  • image: magick image object returned by image_read() or image_graph()
  • path: filename of the output gif or video. This is also the return value.
  • framerate: frames per second, passed to av_encode_video
  • ...: additional parameters passed to av_encode_video and gifski .
