About MP4

MPEG-4 Part 14

MP4 is the most widely used video format, usually with H.264 video and AAC audio. Phones, cameras, websites and social networks all use it.

Frequently asked questions

How do I convert GIF to MP4?

Add your GIF file to the tool above. MP4 is already selected, so processing starts with the right settings. When it is done, click Download.

Will converting GIF to MP4 reduce the quality?

No. Every frame of the GIF is kept, and MP4 stores it with full color instead of 256 colors. The video is usually far smaller than the GIF.

Is my GIF video uploaded anywhere?

No. The GIF to MP4 conversion runs entirely in your browser using ffmpeg compiled to WebAssembly. Your video never leaves your device.

How long does converting GIF to MP4 take?

If the streams can be copied, a few seconds. If the video has to be re-encoded, roughly one to three minutes per minute of 720p video on a computer, and longer on phones.
