Uploading Recording from emulator

[Czarnikjak]

I am trying to find a way to upload a short recording from an emulator to this forum.
I think the PostImage here supports Gifs, but the Gif generated by InkSpector emulator doesn't seem to be accepted.

Any ideas?

Are you actually wanting to upload a file like an .rzx or a video ?

For the latter maybe YouTube or another video sharing site (can maybe find one without registration) , it may or not parse (appear as a video rather than a link) dpeending on what the site is though.

For short recordings I use ZX Spin, which allows you to record in GIF format.

Then upload the GIF to an image sharing site (I use imgur) and copy/paste the image link.

On Linux with Fuse you use File->Recording->Record... to create an "FMF" file (which is Fuse's recording format, which includes sound). You then convert from FMF to GIF using fmfconv from the fuse-utils package and convert from ImageMagick. It's described in the man page.

Edit: oops, sorry, I misread that as you asking how to create the GIF file in the first place.

@Morkin

Oh I was trying to upload gif directly here by using that blue P button below editing window, without uploading it to other external site

Ah OK yes, I don't think you can do it that way, best to just use an embedded link.

Well, I never noticed that little button before.

This is what you get after uploading an image via the blue button (I have only tried it with JPG):

Code: Select all

[url=https://postimg.cc/N5kzLz5Z][img]https://i.postimg.cc/N5kzLz5Z/photo-1576344333162-f83e5e18902e.jpg[/img][/url]

You just need to remove from the left of the img tag and right of the /img tag, so you get this:

Code: Select all

[img]https://i.postimg.cc/N5kzLz5Z/photo-1576344333162-f83e5e18902e.jpg[/img]

Which gives you...

Yeah, the problem i was facing is that postimg doesn't seem to accept gifs....need to use different image hosting service.

Hi @Czarnikjak,

I just tried the Gif that @Morkin uploaded and it seems fine (although a little small). Try creating your Gif with one of the suggestions above.

I personally use imgbb.

Best wishes
