Export gif through ImageWriter problem

Tried with the default helping file for ImageWriter Node (HowTo Export or save an image to a jpg or png file)

Every time I tried to save gif, the purple error would occur: Unexpected exception during Update: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Wondering if anyone had successfully exported gif through ImageWriter Node? Is there any other necessary setting would be needed for the specific format.

Other formats works fine for me (png, jpeg, pdf .etc)

confirmed. the ImageWriter (and the underlying skia library) actually only supports: png, jpg and webp. all the other listed formats need to be removed.

but i’ve just shared this new nuget that may be useful for you: NuGet Gallery | VL.IO.GifRecorder 0.0.1-alpha

also interesting could be: GitHub - vjgegenlicht/VL.LoopTool: A small toolset to create video loops and record them in VVVV Gamma

Thank you! Tried out the new nuget, and it’s really helpful!
However, it seems to have a small glitch 😂 with skia renderer.
So when I tried with skia renderer, the background color would be inverted while saving the gif. I’ve attached a screenshot along with the post.

confirmed. i’ve fixed this in version 0.0.2-alpha of the pack.
