How to Export GIFs with Transparency in Voukoder?

mamomo

Greetings to the community!

I've been using the Voukoder application and I'm really impressed with its ability to export GIFs. However, I've been having trouble trying to export GIFs with transparency or alpha channel (Magix Vegas). It seems like the transparency feature is not active in the export options.

Could someone provide some guidance on how to enable the export of GIFs with transparency in Voukoder? I've gone through the settings and haven't found a specific option for it.

I appreciate any advice or suggestions you can provide. Thank you in advance for your help!

I've never worked with GIFs, but for transparency renders you'll need to start with the YUVA template in Vegas -> Render As -> VoukoderPro. Then link your desired Scene and save the template as whatever name you want.

Where can we download the YUVA template.

I have done many tests and I cannot render directly from Vegas.

It's one of the 3 default templates that come with VoukoderPro. Start with this template, link your desired Scene to it (Customize Template . . .), and rename it to your liking.

I don't know if it will solve your GIF issues, but that's how you export transparency (alpha).

Yes, now I have tried and it really seems to make transparency, although I don't see any option to export in GIF format

I don't either . . . Sounds like a Vouk-level question.

It should be present in Voukoder classic.

But I've also added it to VoukoderPro in version 0.7.7.

mamomo

Well yes, now it appears, but I still can't get it to do so transparently when exporting...

I'm not sure this is possible at all. The pixel format (rgb8) supplied to the gif encoder does not contain an alpha channel.

Code

Encoder gif [GIF (Graphics Interchange Format)]:
    General capabilities: dr1
    Threading capabilities: none
    Supported pixel formats: rgb8 bgr8 rgb4_byte bgr4_byte gray pal8
GIF encoder AVOptions:
  -gifflags          <flags>      E..V....... set GIF flags (default offsetting+transdiff)
     offsetting                   E..V....... enable picture offsetting
     transdiff                    E..V....... enable transparency detection between frames
  -gifimage          <boolean>    E..V....... enable encoding only images per frame (default false)
  -global_palette    <boolean>    E..V....... write a palette to the global gif header where feasible (default true)

Am I looking in the wrong place? I don't see anything that says Animated GIF.

Vouk

You need to disable audio in the NLE. Then it should be visible.

Joe24

Haven't found it yet. Vegas Pro 20, Voukoder 13.0.2. So far I've tried:

Muting the master audio bus.
Muting all individual audio tracks.
Deleting all audio tracks.
Options -> Mute All Audio.

No worries, I'll just use VoukoderPro.

Vouk

But is transparency possible? Any experiences?

I have tried many things and so far I have not succeeded...

In my case it would be good to be able to make Instagram and WhatsApp stickers, which have to be transparent
