Download your GIF files, after MConverter has finished processing them

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.
Common questions about converting WMV to GIF
Can I make a high resolution GIF in perfect quality?
Yes, our video to GIF maker keeps the original resolution and frame rate. This way, you can create HD and 60fps GIF animations. Keep in mind that the higher the quality, the larger the file size.
Can I convert WMV to GIF in bulk?
Yes, MConverter supports batch converting of multiple WMVs to GIFs simultaneously. You can even drag and drop folders containing WMVs to convert to GIF. Pasting WMV files and folders copied in the clipboard also works: use Ctrl+V.
Can I convert a WMV file to GIF, if its size is 2 GB?
Yes, with MConverter Pro you can convert big WMVs, up to 2 gigabytes each. The free version lets you convert files up to 100 MB. If you need to convert WMV files over 100 megabytes, try MConverter Pro. If your files aren’t over 1 GB, then you can use MConverter Plus instead, as it’s cheaper.
Is converting WMVs to GIF safe with MConverter?
Yes, we encrypt your connection using industry standards. Plus, your WMV files are only accessible by you. 4 hours after the conversion completes, they are automatically deleted from MConverter’s servers. You can also delete your WMVs and other converted files immediately after finishing the conversion by clicking the bin icon.
