I don't believe that -delay is for extracting frames from an animation. It is for setting the delay between frames when creating an animation.
You need to find out what frame delay is in the animation/movie. Assume it is 25 ms, then you have 1000/25=40 frames per second. So you need to write a script and loop over every frame skipping every 40 frames. That is convert only every 40th frame to an image. If the frame rate is in ticks, such as 25 tics, then tics are nominally in 1/100 of second. So 25 tics would be 100/25=4 frames per second. There may be more elegant ways, but that is all I can suggest. >Hello, > >i tried to convert a movie to images with following command: > >convert -delay 1 Mov.mp4 Mov.tif > >But i can set for delay what i want... i get always the same amount of >pictures.
