@Ajedi32 Thanks. You forgot the -vf though, it should be ffmpeg -ss 30 -t 3 -i input.flv -vf "fps=10,scale=320:-1:flags=lanczos,split[x][z];[z]palettegen[y];[x][y]paletteuse" output.gif

Is there a way to maintain the scale? For example, my video file is 904:774. How do I do it without setting scale=320:-1? Is there a way to automate it without exploding the size?

You can also avoid intermediate image files by using the split filter in ffmpeg. No need to pipe anything at all: ffmpeg -ss 30 -t 3 -i "input.flv fps=10,scale=320:-1:flags=lanczos,split[x][z];[z]palettegen[y];[x][y]paletteuse" output.gif

Add .flv extension to input file to make it easier to understand.

You should merge the last two convert commands: convert -delay 5 -loop 0 -layers Optimize - output.gif

This set of commands also works with avconv
