I'd like to get the delay of each frame in a GIF. I plan to turn it into an MP4 file.
In one of the answers to "How do I convert an animated GIF to a YouTube friendly video format?", it explains how with FFMPEG, however something it does not explain is how to get the framerate/delay of each image in a GIF file.
How do I use ImageMagick (or anything else) to get the delay of frames in a GIF so that I can make an MP4 with a variable frame rate?
