# Animation Encoder
2+
## Overview
43
anim_encoder creates small JavaScript+HTML animations from a series on PNG images.
4+
This is a modification of that original post, that adds some actual documentation
5+
cleans up the code base a bit and attempts to make it slightly more reliable. So that
6+
if anyone actually wants to use this is a project they can get up and running really
7+
quickly.

## Getting Started (Compiling the Example)

virtualenv --distribute venv

source venv/bin/activate
16+
sudo apt-get install pngcrush python-opencv python-numpy python-scipy
17+
python anim_encoder.py example
18+
firefox example.html
19+
}}}
20+
21+
22+
## Capturing your own images
23+
Images will be saved to capture, you simply need to run capture.py and then go about your task.
24+
Note you can just delete frames you don't want as you initially set up, should save you some
25+
time. Then to run the program just go
26+
27+
{{{
28+
python capture.py
29+
}}}

32+
and edit the configuration options.
