Format description

GIF is a widely used image format which supports displaying animations. Its name is synonymous with short, silent, looping videos. However, due to limitations in the design of the GIF format, the animations cannot be very long or have lots of colors, without the file size becoming extremely large.

Optimize GIF Size

To make GIFs smaller in size without reducing quality, you can convert it to a newer, more efficient image format like WebP – which also supports looping animations. Alternatively, you can convert the GIF to a video.

Animated GIF Maker

MConverter lets you create GIF animations from videos. The resolution and frame rate of the original video will be kept, so you can make smooth 60fps GIFs. For greater compatibility, the maximum duration of the created GIF animation is 2 minutes.

Format description

WMV stands for Windows Media Video. Based on the Microsoft Advanced Systems Container Format (ASF), WMV files are meant for streaming and playing with Windows Media Player and the newer Movies & TV app on Windows 10 and 11. Note that WMVs can be encrypted with DRM protection.

To achieve greater compatibility, you can convert WMV to MP4 or another video format.
