Frequently asked questions
How long is the GIF?
The first 8 seconds of the source video, at 480px width — a good balance between quality and file size.
Can I convert a longer clip?
Not currently — GIFs are capped at 8 seconds to keep file sizes reasonable; download the full MP4 instead for longer clips.
