I think you should look at convert. Part of the ImageMagick package,
I think it will happily convert gifs directly to avis. If you have it
installed, man convert will tell you more.
Running a gif on screen, then trying to capture the image on screen as
an avi would be an absolute nightmare ;) AFAIK it would not be
possible this way.
