Animated GIF Metadata

Hi

I’m trying to access the metadata within an animated gif. I need the individual frames so I can extract them as sprites. I’m also interested in the frame times if that’s accessible.

I’ve used an ImageReader to get individual frames, but when I call ImageReader.read(frameIdx) I get the differences in a transparent bitmap. I’d like the composed frame, as ImageIcon renders it (if I just stick the gif anim in there directly). I’m wondering how to either get the composed frame or the meta data that describes it.

Cheers,
