Technical Questions
Currently, we support MP4,MOV and AVI video files. We may add support for additional formats in the future.
The maximum file size for free users is 50MB, while premium users can upload files up to 100MB. These limits help us maintain fast processing times and server performance.
The maximum dimensions for GIFs are 4500×4500 pixels. If your video is larger, it will be automatically resized while preserving the aspect ratio. This ensures optimal file size and compatibility.
There's no strict time limit, but we recommend keeping videos under 30 seconds for optimal GIF quality and file size. Longer videos will result in larger GIF files, which may affect loading times.
Our converter automatically reads your video's metadata and respects its original aspect ratio. To ensure fast and efficient GIF creation (and compatibility with most browsers and platforms), we limit the maximum width to 4500 pixels. If you need a higher resolution GIF, feel free to contact us with your requirements!
Conversion Settings
FPS (Frames Per Second) controls how smooth your GIF appears. Higher FPS values result in smoother animations but larger file sizes. Lower FPS values create smaller files but may appear less smooth.
The Quality setting affects the visual quality and file size of your GIF. Higher quality settings preserve more details and colors but result in larger files. Lower quality settings create smaller files with some loss in visual fidelity.
When enabled, the "Lock aspect ratio" option ensures that your GIF maintains the same width-to-height ratio as the original video. This prevents distortion when resizing. When you change either the width or height, the other dimension will automatically adjust to maintain the correct proportions.
Privacy & Data
