Upscale Gif File with Nearest Neighbor Interpolation (Integer Multiple) on Windows (Gifsicle)
I want to upscale a .gif file with nearest neighbor interpolation on Windows from commandline (I am scaling by integer multiples). I have tried gifsicle 1.92 but for some reason it doesn't work correctly and outputs a corrupted file (it cannot be viewed). This is the input file and the command I'm using:
./gifsicle.exe --resize 256x174 --resize-method sample abomasnow.gif > out.gif
I get a 497 KB output file that cannot be viewed in any gif viewer. What am I doing wrong? I'm also open to using ffmpeg or other tools if it's not possible with gifsicle.
ffmpeg -i input.gif -vf "scale=256:-1:flags=neighbor,split[s0][s1];[s0]palettegen[p];[s1][p]paletteuse" output.gif
