TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name
/c/TenForward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

It's hard to say. When I record them I generally record at about 1200x700 with 144 DPI. Then when I save I save as Gif using the Neural Network setting. I leave most of the settings as default but sometimes I remove duplicate frames to help reduce the size.
EDIT: What resolution is your source video file? I know my Voyager episodes are 480p which is not ideal That will have a huge impact on the quality of the gifs. You also want to upload to a place like Imgur that allows larger gif sizes.
Hmm. I don't see where to set the DPI. I also used the Neural Network setting and the defaults. I tried uploading to Imgur instead of to my computer and straight to Lemmy, no change. I don't have a way to host videos, and the only platform that doesn't black out video recordings is youtube, so that's where I've been sourcing, it's 240p. I wonder if it's that I'm on Lemmy.world- I see you're on Lemm.ee, I don't know if that would make a difference.
Oh, well, thanks for the tips, I'll keep trying!
