Video → GIF
This free video-to-GIF tool converts a video clip into an animated GIF right in your browser, with control over frame rate, width and which section to use. Drop a video, tweak the settings, and convert — it runs on ffmpeg.wasm on your device, so the video never leaves your browser.
Runs entirely in your browser via ffmpeg.wasm — the video never leaves your device. Keep clips short and the width modest; long or large videos can be slow.
How to use Video → GIF
- 1 Drop a video onto the box or click to browse and select one.
- 2 Set the FPS, output width, and optionally a start time and length to trim the clip.
- 3 Click Convert to GIF — the first run downloads the ~31 MB video engine, then it builds a color palette and encodes.
- 4 Preview the animated GIF and download it when it's ready.
Frequently asked questions
Is my video uploaded to a server?
No. Conversion runs entirely in your browser via ffmpeg.wasm, so the video stays on your device and is never uploaded.
How do I keep the GIF small and fast?
Trim to a short section with the start and length fields, and keep the FPS and width modest — long or large videos with a high width can be slow and produce big files.
Can I convert just part of a video?
Yes. Enter a start time in seconds and a length in seconds to export only that segment; leave length blank to convert to the end of the clip.
Does the video-to-GIF tool work offline?
Yes. PDFPowerHub is a PWA, so after the page and engine have loaded once it keeps working with no internet connection.
