GIF with frame or transparency compression are not supported convert animated GIF from compressed to uncompressed by:

convert $src.gif -coalesce $dst.gif

This op also supports decoding JPEGs and PNGs, though it is cleaner to use tf.image.decode_image.

• name: A name for the operation (optional).

Returns:

A Tensor of type uint8.
