This repository is modified based on ESPGIF (for SSD1351) by shraiwi. It can display GIF for ESP8266 with SSD1306 OLED screen.
I hope everyone who has SSD1306 and struggling of converting GIF and displaying GIF on it will find this repository helpful!
This project is based on ESPGIF (for SSD1351) by shraiwi.
Now the GIFCovert can be used for any size of GIF and convert into a size that you want.
GIFDisplay in the folder GIFDisplay is being changed based on the use of SSD1306 instead of SSD1351 OLED screen.
GIF.h in the folder ExampleGIF is an example of convertion with the example gif in the ExampleGIF folder.
(The example uses SSD1306 NOT SSD1351 OLED screen)
I used an online GIF editer called EZGIF to adjust my GIF to the resolution I want and the size can be loaded into ESP8266.
(Due to the fact that most ESP8266 development boards have little flash memory)
YOU NEDD TO PUT THE CONVERTED FILE(GIF.h) IN THE SAME FOLDER WITH GIFDisplay.ino or GIFDisplayOld.ino or CHANGE THE CODE DEPENDING ON THE SCREEN YOU HAVE.
The change in each file will be described in detail in the README in each folder.
The wiring of SSD1306 and SSD1351 is quite different.
| SSD1306 | ESP8266 |
|---|---|
| GND | G |
| VCC | 3V |
| SCL | D1 |
| SDA | D2 |
Here is a video of the final effect with the example GIF in this repository:
