Capturing N64 footage using the GlideN64 plugin

In this continually-updated guide, I'll document my experiences using this plugin and provide tips for using it to render the highest-quality footage possible.

Resolution and rendering scale

GlideN64 gives you the choice of a specific output resolution or a small-integer multiple of your ROM's native rendering size. If you plan on using overscan (see below), I recommend using an 8x scale. Otherwise, you can just pick your monitor's resolution.

Aspect ratio and widescreen

Your emulator (e.g. Retroarch or Project64) likely has its own aspect ratio output setting. Set this first, and then configure GlideN64 to optimally fill in that space. It provides three options: Original, Widescreen (Stretched) and Widescreen (Adjusted).

Adjusted implements a rendering hack to increase the FoV for an output appropriate to 16:9 displays. For some games, this causes culling at the left and right edges of the render, because their frustum is tuned for a 4:3 FoV. For others, it can produce very good results - check out how Adjusted compares to a dedicated widescreen patch for Wave Race 64:

I couldn't find good documentation, but ostensibly "Stretched" merely takes a 4:3 render and interpolates it horizontally to fill a 16:9 area. Stay away from this option - besides outputting a geometrically incorrect picture, I also noted poor image quality and lower-res textures while using it.

For all other cases, chose Original. Notably, this encompasses running widescreen cheats and patches for N64 ROMs, which are designed to output anamorphic widescreen. This also includes N64 games which offer widescreen support, such as Donkey Kong 64*. Just be sure to configure your emulator for a 16:9 output so it can stretch accordingly.

*although DK64's widescreen mode has some UI scaling issues. My advice: always look for a ROM patch or cheat!

Overscan

GlideN64 allows you to specify different cropping values for all four sides of the screen. This is useful for selectively zooming your render to omit unwanted letterboxing, UI elements, etc.

Keep your desired aspect ratio in mind in order to configuring proportional cropping values. For example, if you want to crop 24 total pixels from the sides of a 16:9 output, then you'll want to crop ~42px total from the top and bottom.

From what I understand, cropping this way is theoretically advantageous to cropping in post-production, because you don't lose any rendered area - provided your configured scale/resolution exceeds your display size. But I'm not actually sure when/how the plugin applies overscan cropping so it might not matter.

Item #: SCP-4885

Object Class: Keter

Special Containment Procedures: Currently, it is only theorized that SCP-4885 is contained. To further elaborate, SCP-4885 is contained within an unknown Class-17 Containment Chamber in an unknown site. In the event that SCP-4885 breaches containment, Procedure Invenient Eum is to be enacted, which consists of the following procedures:

Thirty six Class-17 Containment Chambers are to be connected to an independent self-driving vehicle. At all times, 216 inactive Containment Chambers are to be readily available in case of sudden and unforeseen breach of SCP-4885's containment.

One D-Class subject of stable mental health is to be submitted into the vehicle, and driven into the system. A cryptographically secure pseudorandom number generator is to choose a random number between one and thirty-six, and the vehicle is to be transported to a Containment Chamber based on the number chosen.

Each Containment Chamber has a single digital monitor that is capable of outputting video at 720p resolution. Once a D-Class subject is transported to a random chamber, a message is to be sent to every monitor simultaneously. This message consists of the current location of SCP-4885, delivered via an implanted tracking device. The GPS is only accessible by Level 5 Personnel or SCP-4885 containment staff on a need to know basis.

After approximately two hours, each containment chamber is to be transported to a randomly designated Foundation site via self-driving trucks. The trucks are to be disguised as a packaging service in order to prevent suspicion. In the event an accident occurs during this stage, Procedure Invenient Eum is to be enacted again.

No personnel who are aware of SCP-4885's existence are to go within 100 meters of any Class-17 Containment Chamber. Several signs and warnings have been placed around each chamber, labeling it as a water treatment room, and that attempted access is punishable by immediate amnestication and loss of employment as decided by the Ethics Committee.

These warnings tell personnel to report to a nearby Automated Site Overseer of any leaks from the chamber, in which the person will be visually amnesticized by the Overseer, and Procedure Invenient Eum will be reenacted. For more information regarding the composition of Class-17 Containment Chambers, please consult Document 7631.00.

Currently, SCP-4885-1 instances that are located via far2.AIC are contained within Location i. The whereabouts of Location i is only known to far2.AIC. Currently, far2.AIC is connected to 80% of CCTV security cameras within the United States, and 40% of total CCTV security cameras on Earth.

SCP-4885-1 instances discovered by far2.AIC will have specialized Foundation carrier drones to be dispatched and attempt to grab the body, and carry it to Location i, using routes that minimize the chance of unwanted civilian interference. In the event that a civilian notices a drone and SCP-4885 breaches containment, the drone will send an "All Alert" message to SCP-4885's containment team, and Procedure Invenient Eum will be enacted.

In the event that Location i's whereabouts are discovered at large, the next personnel located within Document PAINT-THE-TOWN-YELLOW will establish the next Location i, and their immediate family will be notified of their death.

Description: SCP-4885 is an anomalous humanoid resembling the main character of the popular series of puzzle books "Where's Wally?" (known in the US as "Where's Waldo?"). This entails that SCP-4885 wears a horizontal red and white striped shirt, a red and white bobble hat, and jeans. However, a noticeable difference in appearance from the character is the entity's paler skin and the lack of eyes.

In the event that a subject knows of SCP-4885's current location at any given time1, SCP-4885 will move to the nearest wall and begin to "phase" into it. SCP-4885 will appear inside of the subject, and will reach up the esophagus and grab the subject's chin through their mouth.

SCP-4885 will then proceed to pull themselves through the subject, destroying their internal organs and their spine. Once this has occurred, a yellow liquid will exit the corpse's mouth and will cover the subject entirely, which causes it to become an SCP-4885-1 instance. SCP-4885 will remain in its current location, occasionally patrolling the area, until another person discovers its location once again.

However, if SCP-4885 is close enough to the subject when they discover its location, they will instead approach the subject, attempt to climb into the subject's mouth, enter their abdomen and exit their body through the subject's pelvis. During this time, SCP-4885 can easily dislocate/relocate any joint in its body, and its skin and muscles will gain the consistency of a malleable solid, allowing it to easily climb into and out of the subject.

SCP-4885-1 instances are anomalous corpses that were created by SCP-4885. The entire body of an SCP-4885-1 instance is covered in illustrations similar to those found in Where's Wally? books, with many different characters appearing on the instance's skin. These illustrations originate from the liquid that exits the corpses' mouth. Currently, no instances of the cartoon character "Wally" have been found on an SCP-4885-1 instance. These illustrations cannot be removed from the subject unless the skin it is placed on is removed.

If a subject knows the location of any given SCP-4885-1 instance, SCP-4885 will teleport itself to the subject and kill them in the exact same manner as if they discovered SCP-4885 itself. This will also transform them into an SCP-4885-1 instance.

SCP-4885 was discovered residing in [LOCATION REDACTED] within a small wooden house. Mobile Task Force Chi-19 ("Unrelenting Punishment") was sent to capture an entirely separate anomaly, and did not know of SCP-4885's existence.

Subjects: Amelia Merrick (M-1), James Klein (M-2), Kurt Stoll (M-3)

M-2: Ahem.

M-1: Sigh Right.

The group search the ground floor for the object, and begin to go upstairs. Scraping noises are heard below them, but the group does not notice this.

M-3: There's a picture on the wall.

M-1: Hmm?

M-3: Yeah, looks weird. Looks like crayon.

M-2: Take a picture.

M-3: Already on it.

M-2: Good. Think it has something to do with the anomaly?

M-3: Of course. It looks like Waldo.

M-1: Do any of you have an idea on where the object may be?

M-3: Er, I think it's in here.

M-1: Which room is this?

M-3: Um… Bathroom. There's a toilet and a… a shower, yeah. At least I think it's a shower.

The room is circular, with a normal porcelain toilet at the other side of the room. There is a small depression into the floor, leading to a small drain.

M-2: Strange… what kind of shower is this?

M-1: There is a modified sprinkler on the ceiling. There's a switch on one side of the room that, I assume, would activate the sprinkler. Seeing as this house has been abandoned for several years, I doubt it would work.

M-3 activates the switch. Water begins to come out of the sprinkler.

M-1: I stand corrected. Who is paying the water bill for this to work? Is it still hot?

M-3 touches the water, and immediately recoils in pain.

M-3: Gah… it's scalding.

M-1: Who is…

M-2: I have discovered the object. It was rested… uh, resting on the toilet.

M-2 is seen holding a pair of black circular glasses. The lens appear to be missing.

M-1: Good. You know the drill.

M-2 carefully examines the object, checking for fingerprints or any other traces of evidence. A small set of fingerprints are discovered on the temples of the glasses, which are revealed to be his own.

M-2: Yup, these are the ones. I'll put these in a baggie real quick.

M-2 produces a plastic bag from a small container around their waist, and places the glasses inside.

M-3: There's an inscription here. It's in… uh, [REDACTED].

M-1: Where?

M-3: Over here, on the wall.

The phrase "[REDACTED]" is seen on the wall in [REDACTED].

M-3: This was definitely not here when we first got here. Should we just leave it be and tell command about this, or?

M-2: It's most likely memetic. Here. let me translate it. I have training.

M-2 takes out a small Foundation-made translator, and inputs the phrase.

M-2: Huh, well never mind, doesn't appear to be memetic. It says… "The basement. The corpses from a child's book are in the basement. He is there too. Fr-. " And then it cuts off.

M-3: Hm. Take a picture and we'll send it ba-

M-2 begins to groan and hold their stomach.

M-3: Are you okay? What happened?

A set of fingers exit M-2's mouth, and grab their jaw. The hands push down, launching the jaw across the room. SCP-4885 exits M-2's body.

M-1: W-what the f-

Both M-1 and M-3 begin shooting at SCP-4885. The entity charges towards M-1 and shoves their fingers down their throat, and begin clawing into their mouth by unhinging their jaw.

M-3: Please, fuck, oh god. P-please, command. We're at [LOCATION REDACTED]. I repeat, [LOCATION REDACTED]. We need assistance, asap. Help. HE-

The audio is abruptly severed.

[END LOG]

When the transcript was received by a nearby site, the site almost immediately went into lockdown as SCP-4885 killed most of its personnel. The O5 Council enacted an emergency meeting, and Procedure Invenient Eum was created. Shortly after this, the procedure was enacted, and SCP-4885 was theorized to be contained. All information regarding SCP-4885's location of discovery was removed via an automatic algorithm, and SCP-4885's file was created.

You had this bitch on standby didn’t you

Hi! Can I ask how you make your gifsets? (program, process)? Hope you have an amazing day, your Daisy gifs are gorgeous btw ❤️💔

hello!! hope you also have a great day, and thank you!! and sorry this took a little longer to put together than i thought it would!!

i'll try to explain my process as best i can, and hopefully it makes sense.

program(s)

first, i use photoshop 2021 to make gifs, and i use mplayer osx extended for screencaps. also, i try to avoid using clips from YouTube because the quality usually isn't as good, but if I do have to use that I use 4k video downloader

process

first, first thing you need is the clip that you want to make gif from. the easiest way to find this (in my opinion) is just to search "[...] scene pack" or "[...] mega link." I usually try to make sure the clips i use are 1080p because anything less than that is lower in quality and the gifs aren't as sharp.

second, i open the clip in mplayer to get the screencaps ill use to make the gif. i do this by pausing the video right before the part i want to gif, then pressing and holding command+shift+s (for mac) until ive got the full scene. if you want, you can create a folder on your desktop for screencaps, but I usually just leave them there and delete them once im done.

the next step is when i actually open photoshop. to start, go to file>script>load files into stack

this is where you're going to load in the screencaps you just took. go to browse, then select the first screencap and hold down shift until you select the last screencap, then hit ok

after that i usually crop my gifs. in general, i use 540px x 400px, but that changes based on what exactly im giffing. the way i crop gifs is by clicking the crop icon on the left side, then, above the workspace, selecting W x H x Resolution > 540 px x 400 px > px/in

the next parts so the most complicated part to explain so im gonna use a picture for reference

click create frame animation

next, go to the three horizontal lines across from the word “timeline” at the bottom. once that menu opens, click “make frames from layers” at this point the gif is backwards, so you’ll want to go back to that same menu and click “reverse frames.” 

now that your gif’s frames in the correct order, you can set frame delay. select all the frames in the timeline, then right click so get a box that looks like this:

i almost always set frame delay to .05, but if i have less than ~20 frames ill set it to 0.06    

next, click the symbol in the bottom left corner (you can see it in the photo above) to convert the frames to a video timeline

after this, on the bottom right side, select each layer of the gif under the “layers” tab. right click, then select “convert to smart object.” this will allow you to sharpen your gifs. to do that, at the top of the screen go to filter>sharpen>smart sharpen. the settings i use are 500% at 0.4px, then i sharpen again 10% at 10px  

here's the gif before sharpening:

sharpened 500% at 0.4px:

sharpened 500% at 0.4px then 10% at 10px

coloring

once this parts done you can start coloring your gifs/adding adjustment layers. the main ones I typically use, in order, are curves, brightness, levels, selective color, and vibrance. the first three adjust the lighting of the gif and the last two adjust the color. other layers i use are saturation, color balance, and photo filter, which all adjust color.  

to add adjustment layers, you can either  1. go to layer>add adjustment layer>select the layer type 2. pick a layer type from the icons on the right side (above the layer list)

honestly, the easiest way to do this part is to just select “auto” and photoshop will automatically adjust curves, brightness, and levels, but i usually slightly tweak it from here until im happy with it. 

curves: use the white dropper to select the lightest part of the gif and the black dropper to select the darkest part. you can manually adjust the curve within the little graph too, but typically you don't need to (i only do when the actual scene the gifs from has a tint i don't like, ex. if its really green ill go to the dropbar, go to green, then adjust it until ive mostly neutralized it)

brightness/contrast: brightening too much will sometimes decrease the quality, where increasing the contrast will sometimes help increase the quality

levels: honestly you can almost always get away with not using this unless the lighting in a scene is really bad/weird. use auto then adjust as needed 

this is what the gif looks like after adding adjustment layers: curves: input 85, output 92 brightness: brightness 19, contrast-32 levels: 0,1.11,255

now you can get to actually playing around with colors! 

the first thing i do is add a layer of selective color, go to black, then increase black. this is one of the last ways to increase quality slightly, as it can make the gifs look a little sharper.

next i add vibrance. typically, unless the scene itself is already pretty colorful, ill increase vibrance almost fully, and slightly increase saturation. the issue with increasing saturation too much, especially when your giffing people, is the colors start to look really unnatural 

for this particular gif, i added a hue/saturation layer, then decreased red and increase blue and cyan, because there was a lot of both of those colors in the background and i wanted it to stand out more. i then added another selective color layer and increased cyan for both blue and cyan.

these are the specific adjustments i made: selective color: black>black +9% vibrance: vibrance +76, saturation +10 hue/saturation: red -15 selective color: blue>cyan +75%, cyan>cyan 49% hue/saturation: blue +4, cyan +5

saving

 once you're done coloring, you can save your gif. to do this, go to file>export>save for web (legacy)

these are the save settings i use:

also, the gif size limit for tumblr is 10M, so make sure your gifs are all under that size. if they're too big, you can either adjust the image size on the save page (or while making the gif) or shorten the gif 

and here's the final product!

i hope this was helpful :)

Reverse enginnering the unreleased GameBoy Printer COLOR

For a long time, when I checked out the graphics for the 64DD title Mario Artist Paint Studio, the successor to Mario Paint, I found a bunch of graphics and text that seemed to be for printing images. I was not entirely sure how that worked, how to even access it. I didn’t know enough reverse enginnering “techniques” to even bother while I was translating all the Mario Artist titles.

Fast forward to this month, and with new tools that I wrote, I started to think again about this feature, because it seemed like a full fledged working overlay code. So I went on, and tried to find the other overlays, such as Game Boy Camera menu, and see how the game loaded the overlay and access it.

After finding the LBAs for those overlays, I tried to backtrack the process of loading until I find what is seemingly a bunch of functions to load, init and access the overlay. Bingo! One of them accesses the unused printer overlay. So all I need is to force a way to access it, such as repointing a button’s purpose.

Okay, so I’m greeted with an error that the Printer is not connected. Now it was time to know what it is actually doing to detect the printer. Turns out it expects the Transfer Pak, as there are errors involving the “64GB Cable” (japanese name)? With JoyBus commands that I’ve never seen?

I eventually respond with something that it wants with a custom script, and then I see commands that are pretty much as the same as commands used for the GameBoy Printer.

Thank you Shonumi for having this great article about the technical aspects of the GameBoy Printer, else I would have never known: https://shonumi.github.io/articles/art2.html

So, okay, we need to “emulate” an unreleased Transfer Pak Link cable feature, alongside some response from the printer.

For people who wants some technical information, here’s how the Transfer Pak Link Cable feature works, this uses the JoyBus commands 0x14 to write data (0x23 bytes to send, 0x01 byte to receive), and 0x13 to read data (0x03 bytes to send, 0x21 bytes to receive). (Oddly close to the commands used for GameCube to access the GBA...)

Those commands basically constantly uses 0x20 bytes for data, and 1 byte for some kind of CRC which, sorry, I haven’t taken the time to figure out the calculation, my script just fetches the CRC output.

I plan to write more about the Transfer Pak communication aspects later, as I want to focus on the GameBoy Printer Color.

Eventually it sends GameBoy Printer commands if you “emulate” the Transfer Pak link cable, then receives the so called “keepalive” byte, usually 0x81. And sure enough, I get a Pocket Printer screen.

You get a screen like this, where you can print vertically, horizontally, or vertical strips, with a bigger resolution. You can zoom the picture a bit when you hover the pointer to the picture. You can set the paper color to get a preview of the output, set the brightness and contrast, not unlike the GameBoy Camera, and then a button to print. It is slow, but I found one undocumented command for the GameBoy Printer: Command 0x08. It seems when there’s an error, this command is sent and may interrupt what the GameBoy Printer is doing? Either way, I’m sure Shonumi would be interested to verify this command.

However, this article is about the GameBoy Printer COLOR. Turns out the game expects more than one keepalive byte, it expects 0x81... but it also expects 0x82. What happens if we use that one?

Pocket Printer Color detected, with a full color picture at the center, and more settings. This time there are 5 print settings: slow horizontal/vertical, fast horizontal/vertical (difference explained later), and vertical strips. We are also allowed to change the brightness, contrast, and hue. And of course, the print button.

This is pretty huge, because not only we get to emulate an unreleased Transfer Pak Link Cable support, but also emulating an unreleased, heck, even unannounced GameBoy Printer Color, and Paint Studio provides a fully functional menu for it.

So here’s the commands for that hardware:

0x01 - Init 0x02 - Print Settings (used before copying) 0x04 - Copy Pixel Line 0x06 - Print? (used after copying) 0x08 - Stop? 0x0F - Nop (Status)

It is pretty similar to the original Printer, but some things are performed differently. First, it uses Command 0x02, which uses 5 bytes now, which I’m not sure of the definition (magic bytes, after all), aside that it may set the horizontal resolution, which is either 320 (slow print) or 160 (fast print).

Then it uses command 0x04, which copies a full pixel line, in either resolution, and sends a linear RGBA5551 line just like the N64 format, which means the printer supports a pretty good amount of colors.

After copying all the lines, command 0x06 is used... twice. I’m not sure what it does, but the menu does ask if you want to print the image again, and if I say yes, it only sends that command again, so that means the printer has a large buffer to contain a linear 320x240 RGBA5551 image, and that this command is related to print the image.

As far as I know, the printer status byte definition is very similar, if not the same as the regular printer.

I have made a script for Project64 that “emulates” the necessary stuff so you can mess around with this feature: https://github.com/LuigiBlood/EmuScripts/blob/master/N64/Project64/DMPJ_PocketPrinter.js

You can select the Printer Type between Normal and Color, and you have to click the Save & Load button to access this feature. Disable the script to recover the use of that button. There’s also a bit of documentation inside.

It also creates a RAW file output of what’s copied, so you can take a look at the image with a proper viewer.

This is kind of an experimental blog post, as I’m not very good at writing this stuff, but I hope this gives a good view of the GameBoy Printer Color.

RESOLUTION

Digital Camera Resolution

The amount of detail that the camera can capture is called the resolution, and it is measured in pixels. The more pixels a camera has, the more detail it can capture and the larger pictures can be without becoming blurry or "grainy."

Some typical resolutions include:

256x256 - Found on very cheap cameras, this resolution is so low that the picture quality is almost always unacceptable. This is 65,000 total pixels.

640x480 - This is the low end on most "real" cameras. This resolution is ideal for e-mailing pictures or posting pictures on a Web site.

1216x912 - This is a "megapixel" image size -- 1,109,000 total pixels -- good for printing pictures.

1600x1200 - With almost 2 million total pixels, this is "high resolution." You can print a 4x5 inch print taken at this resolution with the same quality that you would get from a photo lab.

2240x1680 - Found on 4 megapixel cameras -- the current standard -- this allows even larger printed photos, with good quality for prints up to 16x20 inches.

4064x2704 - A top-of-the-line digital camera with 11.1 megapixels takes pictures at this resolution. At this setting, you can create 13.5x9 inch prints with no loss of picture quality.

High-end consumer cameras can capture over 12 million pixels. Some professional cameras support over 16 million pixels, or 20 million pixels for large-format cameras. For comparison, Hewlett Packard estimates that the quality of 35mm film is about 20 million pixels.

Image Resolution

Image resolution is the detail an image holds. The term applies to raster digital images, film images, and other types of images. Higher resolution means more image detail.

Image resolution can be measured in various ways. Resolution quantifies how close lines can be to each other and still be visibly resolved. Resolution units can be tied to physical sizes (e.g. lines per mm, lines per inch), to the overall size of a picture (lines per picture height, also known simply as lines, TV lines, or TVL), or to angular subtense. Line pairs are often used instead of lines; a line pair comprises a dark line and an adjacent light line. A line is either a dark line or a light line. A resolution of 10 lines per millimeter means 5 dark lines alternating with 5 light lines, or 5 line pairs per millimeter (5 LP/mm). Photographic lens and film resolution are most often quoted in line pairs per millimeter.

Pixel density

Pixels per inch (ppi) and pixels per centimetre (ppcm or pixels/cm) are measurements of the pixel density of an electronic image device, such as a computer monitor or television display, or image digitizing device such as a camera or image scanner. Horizontal and vertical density are usually the same, as most devices have square pixels, but differ on devices that have non-square pixels. Note that pixel density is not the same as resolution, where the former describes the amount of detail on a physical surface or device, while the latter resolution describes the amount of pixel information regardless of its scale. Considered in another way, a pixel has no inherent size or unit (a pixel is actually a sample), but when it is printed, displayed, or scanned, then the pixel has both a physical size (dimension) and a pixel density (ppi).

Adobe Ilustration Photoshop

Basic PrinciplesEdit

Since most digital hardware devices use dots or pixels, the size of the media (in inches) and the number of pixels (or dots) are directly related by the 'pixels per inch'. The following formula gives the number of pixels, horizontally or vertically, given the physical size of a format and the pixels per inch of the output:

Number of Pixels=Size in Inches*PPI

Pixels per inch (or pixels per centimetre) describes the detail of an image file when the print size is known. For example, a 100×100 pixel image printed in a 2 inch square has a resolution of 50 pixels per inch. Used this way, the measurement is meaningful when printing an image. In many applications, such as Adobe Photoshop, the program is designed so that one creates new images by specifying the output device and PPI (pixels per inch). Thus the output target is often defined upon creating the image.

Printing on PaperEdit

Printing on paper is accomplished with different technologies. Newspapers and magazines were traditionally printed using a screen called a halftone screen , which would print dots at a given frequency called the screen frequency in lines per inch (LPI) by using a purely analog process in which a photographic print is converted into variable sized dots through interference patterns passing through a screen. Modern inkjet printers can print microscopic dots at any location, and don't require a screen grid, so they use a metric called dots per inch (DPI). These are both different from pixel density or pixels per inch (PPI) because a pixel is a single sample of any color, whereas an inkjet print can only print a dot of a specific color either on or off. Thus a printer translates the pixels into a series of dots using a process called dithering. The dot pitch, smallest size of each dot, is also determined by the type of paper the image is printed on. An absorbent paper surface, uncoated recycled paper for instance, lets ink droplets spread — so has a larger dot pitch.

Often one wishes to know the image quality in pixels per inch (PPI) that would be suitable for a given output device. If the choice is too low, then the quality will be below what the device is capable of -- loss of quality -- and if the choice is too high then pixels will be stored unnecessarily -- wasted disk space. The ideal pixel density (PPI) depends on the output format, output device, the intended use and artistic choice. For inkjet printers measured in dots per inch it is generally good practice to use half or less than the DPI to determine the PPI. For example, an image intended for a printer capable of 600 dpi could be created at 300 ppi. When using other technologies such as AM or FM screen printing, there are often published screening charts that indicate the ideal PPI for a printing method.

Using the DPI or LPI of a printer remains useful to determine PPI until one reaches larger formats, such as 36" or higher, as the factor of visual acuity then becomes more important to consider. If a print can be viewed close up, then one may choose the printer device limits. However, if a poster, banner or billboard will be viewed from far away then it is possible to use a much lower PPI.

Fantabulous  guide to extra quality GIF making

I got a couple of asks about making GIFs, and I provided a number of softwares that can give good results in a short time (they’re rather straightforward to use, or you can easily google guides for them), but I found that the best way to truly get high quality results for the smallest filesize possible, especially with cartoons and other scenes with clear lines and pictures, is to use Imagemagick, a powerful image processing plugin. It might seem kinda complex at first because you need to set up some files and use command lines, but once you have everything ready you can get high quality GIFs from any video in a short time.

NOTE: Imagemagick has a lot of functions, and with the right scripts it can put effects or text on the frames, but this guide is going to deal exclusively with the base GIF making process. You can find all the functions and relative commands here.

All the steps in this guide use arbitrary folders as an example: installation files, inputs and outputs directories can be changed as one likes by modifying the script. Change all the “USER” with your PC’s user name.

Download Imagemagick (Win 64bit   -   Win 32bit)

Install it in any folder, making sure this installation option is checked

Download Ffmpeg (Win 64bit  - Win32bit)

Open the archive and extract these files in a new folder called “Ffmpeg” in your Videos folder

Create a new folder in the same Videos folder. I’ll call it Frames and use it in the examples, but you can give it any name.

Create a new Text Document file, call it Extract Frames, open it and paste (don’t forget to change USER to fit your actual username)

cd C:\Users\USER\Videos\ffmpeg\bin ffmpeg.exe -ss 00:00:00 -t 00:00:00 -i C:\Users\USER\Videos\FILETITLE.EXTENSION -r 24 C:\Users\USER\Videos\Frames\image-%%05d.png

This script is going to extract the single frames from any video we provide, and save them in the Frames folder we created earlier. The important parameters in the line are: -  ss 00:00:00 the zeroes are hours, minutes and seconds. By modifying them you’re going to tell the script from what point in the video start extracting frames. - t 00:00:00 this tells the script the length of the video it should render to frames. Hours, minutes and seconds again. - FILETITLE.EXTENSION this should be changed to fit the video you want to work with (to be put in the Videos folder, as usual you can change all the directories as you see fit by modifying the script, this is just for the sake of giving a ready-to-go example). Note: special characters and spaces can lead to issues, would be best to temporarily rename the video to something simple, just until the frames are ready. - r 24 this is the framerate. 24 is the standard value, it’s going to save 24 pictures for a second of footage. Modify it to fit the video’s framerate, or to reduce the final filesize (the less frames per second a GIF has, the smaller the filesize, but also the less smooth the animation)

Save the text file and rename it from .txt to .bat

Now create another text file, in the same Videos folder once again (we’ll name it “Gif”), and paste into it this:

cd C:\Users\USERS\Videos\Frames convert -delay 4 -loop 0 -dither FloydSteinberg -fuzz 0.75%% -layers optimize-plus -coalesce -layers optimize-transparency -resize 700 image-0*.png C:\Users\USERS\Videos\OUTPUT.gif

This script is going to use the frames in the Frames folder, and turn them into a GIF.  The important parameters in the line are: • -delay 4 the duration of each frame, 4 is the default value for a 24 frames per second gif. 2 gives a GIF where frames are twice as fast, 8 twice as slow, and so on. • -dither FloydSteinberg this tells the script to generate a GIF with dithering. Changing it to  +dither FloydSteinberg generates a GIF with no dithering. See the bottom of the guide to understand what dithering is and when I need or don’t need it. • -fuzz 0.8%% (yes two %%) this sets the sensibility to changes between frames. Higher values will give a smaller filesize, but after a certain amount the quality is going to decrease, and artifacts might begin to appear. Test to find the best value. 0.8 usually works in most cases, values above 2 will almost always generate artifacts. • -resize 700 the horizontal size for the GIF, in pixels.  • OUTPUT.gif the filename for the resulting GIF. 

Save the text file and rename it from .txt to .bat

Now by right clicking on the .bat files you can Edit them with the parameters you need.

So, to conclude: running Extract Frames.bat is going to convert the clip you set from the video you set to individual frames, and save them in the Frames folder. You can then edit them, delete them to accurately trim the scene, do anything you want - as long as you don’t change the naming structure of the files, so image-0[..].png). Then running Gif.bat is going to make a GIF using the parameters you set, and those frames.

EXAMPLE

Current situation in the Videos folder, I want to make a GIF from this file called video.mkv

The command line for Extract Frames.bat is going to be:

cd C:\Users\USER\Videos\ffmpeg\bin ffmpeg.exe -ss 00:02:00 -t 00:00:05 -i C:\Users\USER\Videos\video.mkv -r 24 C:\Users\USER\Videos\Frames\image-%%05d.png

This means it’s going to convert 5 seconds of video (-t 00:00:05) to frames starting two minutes into the file (-ss 00:02:00), saving 24 frames per second, so the same framerate as the video (-r 24). Double click on Extract Frames.bat and wait for the Command Prompt window to close itself. You should now have all the frames in the Frames folder.

You can delete those you don’t need at this point: it’s not a problem if the numbers are not consecutive, as long as they keep the same naming structure.

Now I’m going to double click on the Gif.bat file, which is going to have this command line inside:

cd C:\Users\USERS\Videos\Frames convert -delay 4 -loop 0 -dither FloydSteinberg -fuzz 0.8%% -layers optimize-plus -coalesce -layers optimize-transparency -resize 700 image-0*.png C:\Users\USERS\Videos\output.gif

So it’s going to use the frames to make a GIF with dithering (see bottom of the guide), with a horizontal resolution of 700px (-resize 700), named “output.gif”. Run, wait, and you will have your GIF.

DITHERING

GIFs have a 256 colors limit, so they can have a hard time rendering gradients and shaded colors. This limitation can be worked around using dithering (-dither FloydSteinberg command in this specific guide), which is essentially using small dots of different colors to simulate gradients. This leads to a less clean picture, but helps reducing banding. Turning off dithering (by changing the command to +dither FloydSteinberg) can reduce the filesize, and improve the quality on perfectly flat colored surfaces, but generates banding, “blotches” of color, where gradients and shading should be.

DITHERED Gradients are well rendered, but everything has little dots/grain

NOT DITHERED Characters look cleaner, but the background and lights have heavy banding

Hello! I was recently asked on how I made this edit with gifs behind it, and I thought the best way would be a tutorial, since there are a lot of steps to do. Now I use Photoshop CS6 and I probably do things the hard way, but it’s the most comfortable way for me. Anyways, here it goes! (warning! A lot of text..sorry I’m just thorough I guess..)

This part is for the still image first;

Open the photo you would like to use. I’m using this one.

Select the brush tool.

Press Q

Draw over the part that you want in your edit (it should look red)

Press Q again

Select any selection tool (I usually use the Marquee Tool)

Right click on the image and hit ‘Select Inverse’

Right click again on the image, and select ‘Refine Edge.’ I use this to clean up my edges a bit, since it’s really hard for me to make it perfect with a mouse. So play around with the settings, make sure it’s on preview so you can see what it is doing with your image.

When you are happy with the settings you have, go to where it says ‘Output To:’ use the drop down menu and select ‘New Layer’ and hit ok. You should now have something that looks like this; 

So that’s one part done. Onto the next one.

Create a new document, and select your size. For my edit I used 560 x 560.

Go to the crop tool, and right click and select the slicing tool.

Right click your document, and select ‘Divide Slice’

Select how many slices you want horizontally and vertically. I did 3 slices horizontally and 2 vertically, so it looks like this;

Now to get the correct size of each square is a bit of a process (well the only way I know how to do it)

Use your paint bucket tool and select any color and use it on the main image.

Select your Marquee Tool and go over one of the squares

Hit CTRL + C to copy that selected area

Go to File on the upper left hand corner of Photoshop and select ‘New’ and it should tell you the width and height of each square. You can write it down if you wish, or if you can remember lol. Mine is 280 x 187

If you want to remove the colored background you just did, just hit CTRL + Z, it removes the last step you did.

Now this is where it kind of gets tricky if you aren’t too familiar with Photoshop, but be patient! Patience is KEY!

So for the gifs part, I do gifs the hard way (OBS + KMPlayer) and i’m sure there are simpler ways to do it, but I like to make things complicated for me I guess lol. If you have an easier way to make gifs, like ezgif or something, anything that saves the gif to your computer..please do it that way lol, anyways.

On your main image, on the bottom select ‘Create Frame Animation’ (if its not there you made just have to toggle it on. Go to ‘Windows’ in Photoshop and select ‘Timeline’ and it should pop up.)

Duplicate as many frames as you like. I believe my edit had 20 frames. Be cautious, if your file is OVER 3MB, it will not move on Tumblr. So you have to make sure, when you are saving that it is NOT over the 3MB (I will show you how you can see if it is or not) So try not to do a lot of frames, 12-20 should be good for this.

Open the gif you want to use. 

Select the crop tool and use the drop down menu to select W x H x Resolution and type in your square size in your main image (mine was 280 x 187) and hit enter. Your frames should now all be the exact size of your square now.

Select all your frames on your gif. You can select them all by SHIFT clicking the first and last one.

Now select the little menu at the end of the timeline (looks like three lines) and select ‘Copy Frames’

Now go back to your main image, select all frames by shift clicking the first and last one and then select the same menu button with the three lines, and select ‘Paste Frames.’

A pop up menu will come up and select ‘paste over selection.’

On the left hand side, where your layers are, shift click the first and last one so they all move at once, and move it to whatever square you want it to be.

Now keep doing this till all your gifs are where you want them on the main image.

Make sure you change the speed of each frame in your Timeline to whatever you want, mine is set to .2 secs. Also make sure to change ‘Once’ to ‘Forever’ or it will only loop once.

Now to add your ‘Still Image’. This part is pretty simple. 

Select the layer with the ‘Still Image’ on it (the one with no background) and drag it to the main image. (to drag it just make the window smaller and hold left click and drag it over to the main image.)

Now make sure the ‘Still Image’ is at the very top of all your gifs, so the gifs aren’t overlapping the image.

Now here you can play around with coloring, and brightness etc. Just remember that it will affect not only your main image, but also the gifs as well. (I haven’t learned how if it affects one it won’t affect the others lol) 

If you want the out line like I did with Jack, just select the ‘Still Image’ layer, right click it, go the ‘blending options’ , select ‘stroke’, make sure the color is white, select your size (usually 1-4 but see what you like), and if you want, change the opacity.

Ok now onto saving. This is where my frustration usually sets in as, more often than not, my gifs are way over the 3MB limit. If you have more that 3MB size of a file, you may need to remove some frames, or fiddle with the coloring, brightness etc (if you did that)

When you are satisfied with your finished product, go to file, and select ‘Save For Web’. Now this is where you will see how big your file size is and how your image will look on the web.

As you can see mine is way below the file limit, which is fantastic!

Also I will show you my settings I use when I’m saving a gif;

Again, make sure your looping options is set for ‘Forever’ or will it only loop once.

Uhh..ok..I think that’s it. I hope this was a little bit helpful and not at all confusing...if you have any questions, ask away and I’ll try and answer them. :)
