heic2stw

heic2stw

Extract timing metadata from .heic (macOS dynamic wallpaper / HEIF) files.

Can be used in combination with an ImageMagick command like this:

convert image.heic image_%02d.jpg

And then extract a simple timed wallpaper file like this:

heic2stw image.heic > image.stw

Then copy image.stw and image_*.jpg to /usr/share/backgrounds/image/.

The included heic-install script in the scripts directory in the project root does all of the above.
