MP4 to GIF Converter
MP4 to GIF without uploading it
Drop a short MP4, WebM or MOV clip and this page samples frames with the browser, quantizes them to the GIF 256-color palette and encodes the looping GIF itself - no library, no server, no upload. Honest limits: GIF has no audio, 256 colors band photos and gradients, long or wide GIFs get heavy, and exotic codecs (HEVC) often fail in Chrome/Firefox.
- GIF stores only 256 colors - photos and gradients band a little; flat graphics and screen recordings convert cleanly.
- GIF has no sound - any audio in the MP4 is dropped.
- The loop never stops - that is a GIF property, not a setting.
- 10 to 15 fps at 320 to 480 px keeps files chat-friendly; wide or long GIFs get heavy fast.
- Above 20 fps barely helps in a GIF - the format was not built for smooth motion.
- Over about 8 MB the GIF stutters in most chat threads - lower the FPS or width.
- MP4 usually means H.264 which Chrome and Firefox can decode; HEVC/H.265 often cannot be seeked in the browser.
- Re-encoding drops any EXIF or metadata from the source clip.
- The conversion runs on this page: frames are captured, quantized and encoded here, never uploaded.
- Conversion cannot improve the clip - it only re-samples what the browser already decoded.
- Check the result size before sharing: if it grew too much, lower the FPS or cap the width.
