@LoganPrice Sorry for the late reply. I believe you can change that behavior via the disposal=... keyword argument, cf. pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/handbook/…

By the end of the gif, it looks like a bunch of images stacked on top of each other. Is there a way to specify that each frame gets destroyed after it is shown? | |

Thanks, worked perfectly for me, but had to import ExitStack like this: from contextlib import ExitStack

Ensure that opened files are closed

I find this answer very useful, however, if you execute this in an interactive shell (ipython), the images remain open as long as the shell runs. Therefore a closing method is required: for t in (Image.open(f) for f in sorted(glob.glob(fp_in))): t.close()

avoid loading all images in memory
|
| Feb 21, 2022 at 12:22 | comment | added | Kris | You're right, I'll edit it to use iterators instead. Note that PIL is clever enough not to load all images in memory, cf. github.com/python-pillow/Pillow/blob/main/src/PIL/… | |
| Jan 30, 2022 at 22:22 | comment | added | Smiley1000 | This will load all images into memory at the same time which can easily exhaust it. | |

That's a python language feature. It does iterable unpacking. You can roughly think of it as unpacking x = [a, b, c] to *x which can be thought of as a, b, c (without the enclosing brackets). In function calls these are synonymous: f(*x) == f(a, b, c). In tuple unpacking it's particularly useful in cases where you want to split an iterable into a head (first element) and a tail (the rest), which is what I do in this example.
