@graingert I got better results by using -density 256x256 as specified in this SO answer.

So to sumarize, use:

convert -density 256x256 -background transparent favicon.svg -define icon:auto-resize -colors 256 favicon.ico

This can be done in magick directly:

magick -density 256x256 -background transparent favicon.svg -define icon:auto-resize -colors 256 favicon.ico

Hi there, I'm jumping into this thread long after the previous post... But this command gives me a multi-sized ICO as expected, but all dimensions are completely white (or any color I specify as the background parameter)... I don't find any clue about it for now...
