automating actions. in gimp ?

Hi , does anybody know if with the gimp i can aply the same action to lots of frames ?
like photoshop does ? and make it all automated?

thanx

i dont know, and im curious as well…but have you tryed the gimp animation package? gimp-gap how they call it…any experiences with it?

I beleave photoshop style actions are planned for GIMP, but for now a bit of coding is needed.

You don’t need to get as involved as working with Python or Script-Fu if you want to work with multiple images. Gimp-Gap has numerous tools for doing this. I highly recommend that anyone that has Gimp installed have Gap. It brings a bunch of new options. And there’s some really cool stuff that was added in Gimp 2.3. For instance, you can parse video files with MPlayer through Gimp!

cool i didnt knew about the mplayer parsing, i would say learn scheme, it will give lots of ways to make this i think, if i had a link from a guy that write gimp plugins you would see what im talking, but i lost the location, anyway its doable, if not there is always cinepaint which isnt windows supported i think at the moment.

I would learn Python instead. It’s way faster to use and develop, easier to read and write, and documentation is everywhere.

TinyScheme that is used in Gimp is way too hard to find information on (if you can find it at all). It’s not as simple as picking up a Scheme book; Most of language isn’t there. It’s a headache to read and debug. The version in 2.2 is not the same as what’s in 2.3, and they’re incompatible. The 2.2 version of Scheme has memory leaks like crazy.
