Frequently Asked Questions

Everything about converting video to GIF online.

What video formats are supported?

MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, AVI, FLV, and MPEG are all supported. FFmpeg.wasm handles the decoding entirely in your browser, so the format support is broad.

Why is my GIF large?

GIFs store full uncompressed frames and are not as efficient as modern video formats. Use a lower FPS (5–10), a shorter duration (under 5 seconds), and a smaller width (320–480px) for smaller file sizes.

Is my video uploaded anywhere?

No. FFmpeg is compiled to WebAssembly and runs entirely inside your browser. Your video bytes never leave your device.

How long a clip can I convert?

Duration is capped at 30 seconds per conversion. Longer clips produce very large GIF files that are impractical to share. For longer animations, consider using a video format like WebP or MP4 instead.

Why does conversion take a while?

FFmpeg.wasm runs in a WebAssembly environment in your browser, which is significantly slower than native FFmpeg. Shorter clips, lower FPS, and smaller widths convert much faster. The first conversion also requires loading the FFmpeg library (~10 MB).
