Golden GIF Player : Get a closer view of GIF files to analyze each frame, and even export a custom range under a specific set of parameters with this application
Multimedia content over the web caught up different forms over the years, and it’s more or less time for GIF animations to make a stand. These are mere pictures bundled together to create a fluid set of harmonic effects. Specialized applications are required to view and analyze them, and Golden GIF Player is a suitable example here.
Comes with a custom-made interface
The visual design comes wrapped in a custom-made texture, which gives it a personal feel, but doesn’t really make it stand out from the crowd. This doesn’t make it less intuitive though, with a set of controls in plain sight, a preview area, as well as several sliders to skip through content, handle zoom, as well as playback speed.Needless to say that the main resource files here are represented by GIF files, which need to be animated to fully take advantage of what the application has to offer. It can take a bit of time to load a complex animation, but preview can be initiated as soon as this is done. A set of corresponding controls can be used to gradually skip through content.
Export custom frame count and parameters
One of the core features is to help you inspect all frames inside the GIF animation. Export options make it possible to have a single, or multiple frames exported at a time. Before this is done, you can access the corresponding file’s set of properties to view dimensions, frame count, color configurations, as well as delay for each frame.Deciding to export stuff from the GIF file brings up a new window with a dedicated set of controls. The scope can either be a range of frames, or all of them. Size can be managed as well, either through preset or custom values. Speed can be adjusted, and you can add a loop parameter in case it’s missing. You can choose to export as GIF, or other picture formats.
To end with
All things considered, we can state that Golden GIF Player is a neat little GIF analysis tool. Although there are no editing options, the application does make it easy to preview, and export custom frames under a whole variety of parameters, including a loop effect.
