There's no strict length limit, but the 256KB file size cap effectively limits duration. Typically 1-3 seconds at 10-15 FPS fits comfortably. Longer clips require more aggressive compression or lower frame rates.

This tool accepts most common video formats including MP4, WebM, MOV, and AVI. Your browser handles the video decoding, so compatibility depends on your browser's media support.

Use the start and end time sliders to select the exact portion you want. The preview updates in real-time so you can see exactly what frames will be included in your GIF.

Video-to-GIF conversion can create large files. Reduce size by: shortening the clip, lowering frame rate (10 FPS is usually enough), reducing colors, or using the quality slider. This tool shows estimated size before generation.

10-15 FPS works well for most reaction GIFs and keeps file sizes manageable. Higher frame rates (20+) look smoother but create much larger files. Lower rates (5-8 FPS) are choppy but very small.

Yes! After loading your video, drag the crop overlay to select which part becomes the 128×128 emoji. This lets you focus on the important part of the frame.

No. Discord emojis are GIF format which doesn't support audio. Only the visual portion of your video is converted. For reactions with audio, consider Discord soundboard features instead.

Choose start and end points where the action connects smoothly. For perfect loops, the last frame should lead naturally into the first frame. Some trial and error may be needed.

Yes, the frame delay setting controls playback speed. Lower delay = faster animation. You can preview different speeds before generating the final GIF.

No. All video processing happens locally in your browser. Your video file never leaves your device. Frame extraction and GIF creation are done entirely client-side using JavaScript.
