ImageMagick based picture reader [updated 18.04.05, sequence feature added]

use this mirror please: (thx to makoto916) (also inlcudes the effects features: ) single picture: immareadpic("x:\path\pic.bmp") animation: immareadanim("x:\path\anim.gif") image sequence: immareadseq("x:\path\seq%3.3d.png", start=5, stop=89, fps=25, textmode=2, posx=50, posy=50) supported formats (90+): the filter will also accept urls and the imagemagick internal pictures like "magick:rose" the video will be 10 fps & rgb32 (incl alpha) the filter is only tested roughly, so i'd be happy to hear some results i still welcome feature request, but only for the avisynth part for requests to the imagemagick team use the "Discourse Server" (forum) at

MNG is in the format list, so it should work just try it

tested an mng animation works fine if you can't get beyond a certain frame, restart vdub one possible future feature would be correctplayback in avisynth (gif animations are vfr) but it would be quite some work to figure out the framerate and how often to duplicate each input-frame, so i'll likely only do that on request

Multipage .tif maybe? It doesnt seem to work atm, although normal .tif is supported.

Would it be possible to load a series of photos? Also a TXT file with example scripts or the saved HTML (or MHT) file in the ZIP would be ideal.

ok, i'll see what i can do

could someone please test if the alpha channel is imported correctly or inverted? thx

Yup, the alpha channel is imported correctly. I tried several formats: jpg, gif_alpha, gif_animated, jng_alpha, mng, png_alpha, tiff_alpha The only thing i couldn't import (or view with a different viewer) was a mng with alpha channel: from

thx i'll check that if it doesn't work in imagemagick i'll make a bugreport

that file crashes the imagemagick binaries i posted a bug report on their forum
