Failure to create GIF using yuv4

[WillM200]

I'm attempting to use the new yuv4 pipeline to create a GIF direct from an MP4 file.

It begins the process when the command is entered through and actually creates a GIF file that seems to be corrupted, with CMD spitting out the following error: "Error parsing y4m header"

Used the exact command listed out in the README ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -f yuv4mpegpipe - | gifski -o anim.gif -

I got same issue using ffmpeg 7

Can you include an example y4m file that is failing?

ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -f yuv4mpegpipe file.y4m
# gifski -o anim.gif < file.y4m

You may need to add -t 1 (duration) to keep the file small.
