Questions
How does video-to-GIF conversion work in the browser?
The tool loads your video into an HTML video element, seeks to different timestamps, draws each frame onto a Canvas, and collects them as an animated sequence. You can adjust the frame rate and duration.
What video formats are supported?
The tool supports any format your browser can play, typically MP4, WebM, and MOV. For best results use short clips under 10 seconds.
Is the video to GIF converter private?
Yes. Your video file is processed entirely in the browser and is never uploaded to any server. All frame extraction and assembly happens on your device.
How do I get a smaller GIF file size?
Use a shorter clip, reduce the output dimensions, and lower the frame rate. Fewer frames and smaller dimensions significantly reduce the final file size.
Does the video to GIF converter work offline?
Yes. Once the page is loaded, all video processing and frame extraction happen in your browser using the Canvas and Video APIs with no server communication.
