Why is my GIF file so large?

GIFs are an inefficient format for video. Long duration, high frame rate, large dimensions, and complex scenes all increase file size. Keep clips short, reduce frame rate to 10-15 fps, and use smaller dimensions to manage file size.

What's the difference between AVI and GIF?

AVI is a video container format that can use various codecs for efficient compression. GIF is an image format that supports animation but has no video compression, making it much less efficient for storing motion.

Can I convert the entire AVI file to GIF?

You can, but it's not recommended. A 1-minute video could produce a GIF over 100MB. GIFs work best for short clips under 5 seconds. For longer content, consider using MP4 or WebM video formats instead.

Are my files uploaded?

No. All processing runs in your browser. Your AVI files never leave your device.

Yes, completely free with no account required.

What frame rate should I use?

10-15 fps is usually sufficient for most content. Higher frame rates increase file size significantly. Use lower frame rates for slow-motion content and higher rates for fast motion.
