Workaround for error converting video to animated GIF

Post by ZachBenz »

If you are using the Download Video for Specified Event action with conversion to animated GIF enabled and see the error:

Code: Select all

Ring Error          Error converting downloaded video to animated GIF
Then the most likely cause is a lack of code signing, which causes issues under recent versions of macOS (e.g. 10.15 Catalina). Generally speaking this is a good thing (macOS not running unknown code by default), but it is an annoyance for plugins, such as this one, that include open source executables (ffmpeg in this case).

For now, to workaround the issue, please follow the steps found here. Unfortunately, you have to go through this workaround every time you upgrade the RingForIndigo plugin.
