<br />

    tf.raw_ops.DecodeGif(
        contents, name=None
    )

GIF images with frame or transparency compression are not supported.
On Linux and MacOS systems, convert animated GIFs from compressed to
uncompressed by running:

    convert \\(src.gif -coalesce \\)dst.gif

This op also supports decoding JPEGs and PNGs, though it is cleaner to use
[`tf.io.decode_image`](https://www.tensorflow.org/versions/r2.13/api_docs/python/tf/io/decode_image).
