How do you save video?

No, but something like a video (or a single animated gif) is what I believe the OP was after and he wasn't sure how to produce such on Linux. I wouldn't know how to do it on Linux and hadn't ever done it on Windows either but the first free Windows app did it with a couple of clicks for me. Cheers, T i m (on my Linux laptop at my Mums). |

I don't think we can tell as I think he posted from Google Groups? No sign of the OP answering the question either. Indeed. Better to wait for a more specific question perhaps? I'll stay with my first hunch till then. More useful would have been on the lines of "Anyone here know Linux? If so,......" Yup. I think someone who was computer literate wouldn't be posting though Google Groups and if they had been given Linux (or installed it themselves and was lucky with the install), they may not be familiar with how they could turn the web version of the weather map into a local 'video' as easily from Linux as they might from Windows. I mean, how many free Linux 'Gif animator' programs are there? On Windows I had the choice of over 10? (Genuine question). Now, it's quite possible that someone who 'knows Linux' wouldn't need any app as it may be easy to take the files and turn them into said 'video' from the CLI? shrug Cheers, T i m |

If you just want the gif you can start mine from the link above and just right click on the animation and select 'Save Image as'. Yes, there are quite a few free photo gif makers. A slightly faster method of collating the pictures is to either find page info from menu or, R click picture and select 'view image info'. You will see a split screen and the top(for me with FF) will show a list of all elements on the page. Click the header to align the file names alphabetically. shift select them all and choose save as. |

Let me count the ways of bypassing a system that likely has a dedicated graphics card as well as an on board one. 1. First I did as suggested by Andy suggested and (in Firefox) opened the Menu and selected 'Save Page' and saved it to the desktop. 2. If you open the new folder you should see all the separate gifs. 3. I then Googled to several 'gif' related apps and this one looked the most relevant: http://www.photoscape.org/ps/main/index.php 4. I opened it, selected 'Animated gif' from the circular menu, then 5. browsed to the desktop and the new folder on the left window, selected 5n. all the gifs (select the first, hold down Shift and then click on the last to highlight the group) then dragged and dropped them on the main window. I then clicked save and called it 'Weather' and save it in 6. Dropbox. You can also play with the timing but it didn't make much different on this slow PC. HTH? Cheers, T i m p.s. If you just want the gif you can start mine from the link above and just right click on the animation and select 'Save Image as'. I am no better than you I would have thought that in the era of COB light bulbs and refrigerators designed to report everything to the NSA except what Hillary did with her e-mails, that it would be possible to just right click then left click a video to get a download. Instead we have to go through this downs-syndrome of micro-pudding-mess that if they had all listened to Bill Gates would never have been able to cope with third partyware. But who am I to complain? I have no idea how to take apart and repair a television, I don't even have the tools to dismantle a refrigerator pump. Nor can recall the last time I was asked to replace a piston on a aeroplane engine, nor weld a fluke back on an anchor. But I do know how to switch on a computer that just works without any fuss with anti-virus scans, and 2 or 3 hours a week updating them nor having to reset all my private tuning after every Patch Tuesday from hell. I just don't know where the application is for saving video. So what I did was click on the "page info" or whatever and copied all the links, placed them on a blog page then opened them and saved all 99 ****ing files and recombined them with the graphics manipulator that comes already installed with each version of Linux: Open as layers Export (as .gif) choose whateverdelicacyofthemonth and Save But and I really mean this: Thanks for your help.

A slightly faster method of collating the pictures is to either find page info from menu or, R click picture and select 'view image info'. You will see a split screen and the top(for me with FF) will show a list of all elements on the page. Click the header to align the file names alphabetically. shift select them all and choose save as. You beat me to it but thanks. |

Weatherlawyer escribió: So which option of graphics should I have clicked open to download animations? You've already had several useful and interesting answers. My earlier question wasn't a pop at you, by the way, just pointing out that an OS is a platform to run tools on, and that OS willy-waving (again, not by you) is pointless. If the tool you want to use runs on only one OS, your choice is already made for you. I've not done it recently, but me being me, would have probably have gone the route of grabbing the individual .gifs with wget at the command line using the '-A *.gif' parameter to filter out everything else, then assembled them into an animated .gif using ImageMagick or similar. Others came up with much more elegant solutions, proving there's more than one way to skin a cat. Glad you got your job done, it was an interesting thread. -- (\_/) (='.'=) systemd: the Linux version of Windows 10 (")_(") |

The copyright owners of online video are tying to prevent it being purloined. It explains the vast plethora of "Youtube downloaders", screen/video capture, website leecher etc. utilities that are available. Or should I be investigating old apple macs?
