This is neat. Needs randomizing, noscroll, wait until images are fully loaded, opacity/fading, Ken Burnsing(?)
But still it's great (and sooo quick). Thank you, Magnus!
I turned randomization on (was off for testing, I forgot), and now has overflow:hidden (=noscroll). All images except the first one are pre-cached.
Of course, wikimedia servers are down, so no joy :-(
Much better. :-)
But it is not what the uploader asked for, I guess. There are many tools that do what he wants: Gwenview/Digikam, Kdenlive for example.
Actually the most annoying thing is to download all images individually, then Magnus tool is (already) very useful. The problem is how to convert the loop into a (not huge) video to be watched without internet connection or combined with an audio recording.
So, some tool to (transiently) generate a tar file with all images in a category for downloading? Might be worth a try...
Yes, it would be useful. But if you need to reuse them you have the perennial problem of metadata (title, author, license) to be downloaded and added. :-/
