The WebPAnimEncoder API from libwebpmux is already supported to encode animated WebP (libwebp_anim encoder). The native muxer writes the packets untouched in that case instead of writing the ANIM headers itself. > There was a request some times ago: > https://lists.ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2017-October/218547.html > > I can help with the libwebp interfacing. > > thx > skal/ Ideally, a GSoC project would add ANIM support to the native decoder rather than adding a new decoder based on the WebPAnimDecoder libwebpdemux API, but at least one of the two should definitely be implemented.
