Hi! I'm completely new on using Blender.

For the 'Basic' version, instead of pixelart image, does it support an animated pixelart?

As far as I'm using Blender (although I'm completely new), Blender doesn't support .gif formats (CMIIW). Because of that I had to convert the animated pixelart form .gif into .mp4/.avi format. I replaced the template input file into the video format I just converted. I tried changing the file format on the render output into video file. I also tried messing around with the frame number. Then I render it as an animation. However, only the first frame that was rendered.

Is there anything that I missed in the settings/rendering process?? Or is there a special case for animated gif/video files? 

Thank you.

Hey! Yeah, Blender refuses to acknowledge gif format exists :D

Here's the steps for rendering an animation:

-Provide either frame-based or video input;

-Check the "cyclic" and "auto refresh" options;

-Edit the "end time" value in the timeline to match the number of frames of your input;


-Modify the render output settings as needed (set output path, format, resolution etc)

-Render -> Render animation (default shortcut Ctrl F12)

Hope this helps!

Thanks! I initially did the same as you wrote here and it didn't work.

Then I realized that I was using an outdated version of Blender. After updating it to the latest one, it finally works flawlessly!
