安装

pip install imageio-ffmpeg
pip install imageio

Code

import imageio
images = []
for filename in filenames:
    images.append(imageio.imread(filename))
imageio.mimsave('movie.mp4', images)

当保存为mp4而不是gif时，质量提高，大小从8Mb减少到80Kb

正如上面提到的一个成员，imageio是一种很好的方法。imageio还允许你设置帧速率，我实际上用Python写了一个函数，允许你设置最后一帧的暂停。我将此函数用于科学动画，其中循环是有用的，但立即重新启动不是。下面是链接和函数:

如何使用Python制作GIF

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import os
import imageio

def gif_maker(gif_name,png_dir,gif_indx,num_gifs,dpi=90):
    # make png path if it doesn't exist already
    if not os.path.exists(png_dir):
        os.makedirs(png_dir)

    # save each .png for GIF
    # lower dpi gives a smaller, grainier GIF; higher dpi gives larger, clearer GIF
    plt.savefig(png_dir+'frame_'+str(gif_indx)+'_.png',dpi=dpi)
    plt.close('all') # comment this out if you're just updating the x,y data

    if gif_indx==num_gifs-1:
        # sort the .png files based on index used above
        images,image_file_names = [],[]
        for file_name in os.listdir(png_dir):
            if file_name.endswith('.png'):
                image_file_names.append(file_name)       
        sorted_files = sorted(image_file_names, key=lambda y: int(y.split('_')[1]))

        # define some GIF parameters

        frame_length = 0.5 # seconds between frames
        end_pause = 4 # seconds to stay on last frame
        # loop through files, join them to image array, and write to GIF called 'wind_turbine_dist.gif'
        for ii in range(0,len(sorted_files)):       
            file_path = os.path.join(png_dir, sorted_files[ii])
            if ii==len(sorted_files)-1:
                for jj in range(0,int(end_pause/frame_length)):
                    images.append(imageio.imread(file_path))
            else:
                images.append(imageio.imread(file_path))
        # the duration is the time spent on each image (1/duration is frame rate)
        imageio.mimsave(gif_name, images,'GIF',duration=frame_length)

一个制作动图的简单函数:

import imageio
import pathlib
from datetime import datetime


def make_gif(image_directory: pathlib.Path, frames_per_second: float, **kwargs):
    """
    Makes a .gif which shows many images at a given frame rate.
    All images should be in order (don't know how this works) in the image directory

    Only tested with .png images but may work with others.

    :param image_directory:
    :type image_directory: pathlib.Path
    :param frames_per_second:
    :type frames_per_second: float
    :param kwargs: image_type='png' or other
    :return: nothing
    """
    assert isinstance(image_directory, pathlib.Path), "input must be a pathlib object"
    image_type = kwargs.get('type', 'png')

    timestampStr = datetime.now().strftime("%y%m%d_%H%M%S")
    gif_dir = image_directory.joinpath(timestampStr + "_GIF.gif")

    print('Started making GIF')
    print('Please wait... ')

    images = []
    for file_name in image_directory.glob('*.' + image_type):
        images.append(imageio.imread(image_directory.joinpath(file_name)))
    imageio.mimsave(gif_dir.as_posix(), images, fps=frames_per_second)

    print('Finished making GIF!')
    print('GIF can be found at: ' + gif_dir.as_posix())


def main():
    fps = 2
    png_dir = pathlib.Path('C:/temp/my_images')
    make_gif(png_dir, fps)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

要创建视频，你可以使用opencv，

#load your frames
frames = ...
#create a video writer
writer = cvCreateVideoWriter(filename, -1, fps, frame_size, is_color=1)
#and write your frames in a loop if you want
cvWriteFrame(writer, frames[i])

我建议不要使用visvis的images2gif，因为它有PIL/Pillow的问题，并且没有积极维护(我应该知道，因为我是作者)。

相反，请使用imageio，它是为解决这个问题而开发的，并打算保留。

快速而肮脏的解决方案:

import imageio
images = []
for filename in filenames:
    images.append(imageio.imread(filename))
imageio.mimsave('/path/to/movie.gif', images)

对于较长的电影，使用流媒体方法:

import imageio
with imageio.get_writer('/path/to/movie.gif', mode='I') as writer:
    for filename in filenames:
        image = imageio.imread(filename)
        writer.append_data(image)

我看到这篇文章，没有一个解决方案是有效的，所以这里是我的解决方案是有效的

到目前为止，其他解决方案存在的问题: 1)对于如何修改持续时间没有明确的解决方案 2)对于乱序目录迭代没有解决方案，而乱序目录迭代对于动图是必不可少的 3)没有说明如何为python3安装imageio

像这样安装imageio: python3 -m PIP Install imageio

注意:你要确保你的帧在文件名中有某种索引，这样它们就可以排序，否则你就无法知道GIF从哪里开始或结束

import imageio
import os

path = '/Users/myusername/Desktop/Pics/' # on Mac: right click on a folder, hold down option, and click "copy as pathname"

image_folder = os.fsencode(path)

filenames = []

for file in os.listdir(image_folder):
    filename = os.fsdecode(file)
    if filename.endswith( ('.jpeg', '.png', '.gif') ):
        filenames.append(filename)

filenames.sort() # this iteration technique has no built in order, so sort the frames

images = list(map(lambda filename: imageio.imread(filename), filenames))

imageio.mimsave(os.path.join('movie.gif'), images, duration = 0.04) # modify duration as needed
