How To Use

1. Open up the program, either choose the "Choose File" Button, or drag the video on the window!

Main Menu

Since Version 4.0.0, you can batch-process multiple videos at once!

Batch Mode

2. Choose your compression options

I'd like to point out that enabling/checking Motion Quality and/or Lossy Quality affects the overall quality.

Settings Menu

Also, you'll also have this option pop up if it detects videos with alpha channels.

Preunmultiply Filter

3. Preview the GIF

Click on the Apply & Preview button, to apply the settings you adjusted and a preview GIF should show along with the GIF Size and Dimensions.

Settings Menu with Preview

If you don't like the current settings, you can always adjust it.

4. Save the GIF

Now just click the Save As button, and you're good to go.

Save As Button

But, let's backtrack a bit, remember on the first time the program opens the GIF, you see the Quick Export button? It's there if you just want something converted quick and done.
