Hey thanks so much for putting this code together!

Honestly, you've written one of the better guides for any project like this that I've come across.

I have a 64x64 matrix, so the 32x32 settings didn't work quite right and I wanted to share the changes I made to display_gif.py so the gif displays correctly on a 64x64 matrix:

in def get_frames(path):
change the values in .resize((32,32)) in frame = frame.convert('RGB').resize((32, 32)) to .resize((64,64))

in def display_gif(path):
change the options.rows = value from 32 to 64
Also, you may need to add the following options:

  • options.cols = 64 [this is the value for columns]
  • options.gpio_slowdown = 0 [ this may be necessary if, like me, you're using a system like a Pi Zero WH; I believe it improve performance]

Thanks so much for checking out my project and for suggesting your improvements!

I'll see if I can incorporate those changes to make the script work for the 64x64 matrix too. (Though, I can't quite test it since I only have the 32x32 matrix myself. But your changes seem on the mark!)
