How convert mp4 to gif works
Process
Choose an MP4 file, select GIF, and start the conversion. Video frames are decoded and assembled into a silent animated image.
Result
An animated GIF that can be embedded where short, silent, automatically looping visuals are useful.
Good to know
GIF files have a limited color palette and can become much larger than video. Short clips with modest dimensions produce the best results.
Does a GIF include sound?
No. The GIF format does not support an audio track.
Why can the GIF be larger than the MP4?
MP4 uses modern video compression, while GIF stores animation much less efficiently.
