GIF to Video Converter

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this?

Drop your GIF into the drop zone or click Choose a File and select a GIF file from your computer. Then, click the Convert to Video button and wait for the GIF to be converted to a video file. Once the conversion is done, you will see a preview of the video and be able to Save it to your computer.

How does this work?

This tool uses FFmpeg.wasm to convert GIF files to video format directly in your browser. No files are uploaded to any server - all processing happens locally on your device.

What video format will I get?

The tool converts GIFs to WebM format, which provides excellent compression while maintaining quality. The video can be played in all modern browsers.

Why did you do this?

This thread on BlueSky, and I hate GIF as a format for moving images, when there are much better video formats now, better suited for the web. Hopefully this makes it easier to upload moving images to BlueSky.

Is the code open source? Where can I file bug reports?

Yes, the code is open source and available on GitHub. Please file any issues or feature requests there.
