How are animations themselves timed? about termtosvg HOT 2 CLOSED

Hey @cookiengineer , as @nbedos pointed out, maybe it's indeed better to not go for that in the final svg output, but instead, in the middle (the cast file).

Wanting to tweak my recordings, I created asciinema-edit - it takes a cast (which termtosvg produces) and then performs a transformation that you might want.

For instance, in your case, you could open the cast with a terminal, remove the pieces you find either too repetitive and then later fix the timestamps with asciinema-edit quantize.

I hope it helps.

thx!

The replay function takes a parameter named min_frame_duration which enforces a minimum duration for each frame. You could set it to say 0.100 seconds to reduce the number of frames and the size of the animation. This parameter can't be set on the command line though, you would have to modify the code.

You might also want to check out the output of termtosvg record. It's the raw output of the recording with timing information (before it is aggregated by replay())

There is also a lot of duplicated information in the SVG animation itself. It does not help reduce the file size.
