Anyone interested in a project  around completing the animated-WebP support
in ffmpeg?
Hooking up libwebpmux / libwebpdemux libraries would be helpful.
There was a request some times ago:
https://lists.ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2017-October/218547.html

I can help with the libwebp interfacing.

thx
