QGifer

QGifer is a feature-rich software application with intuitive options, designed to create GIF animations from any part of a movie. It offers support for AVI, MP4, MPG and OGV format.

The setup procedure does not take a long time to finish. It has a professional-looking interface that allows users to open a video clip with the help of the file browser (drag-and-drop is not supported).

It is possible to preview the clip in the main window, find out the total number of frames in the status bar, and seek a position in the clip by navigating a slider to locate a frame.

You can specify the start and stop frame for the animated GIF, customize its size in pixels (width and height, with or without keeping the aspect ratio), enable dithering and loop mode, use margins, as well as make image adjustments when it comes to the hue, saturation and brightness levels, among others.

The project may be saved to file for further modifications. You can insert text into the GIF animation and with customized font settings (e.g. size, outline width, text color), as well as insert external images (PNG, BMP, JPG or JPEG format).

The tool offers support for multiple languages, has a good response time and crates GIF rapidly, without causing Windows to hang, crash or pop up error messages in the process. We have not come across any stability issues throughout our testing. QGifer provides users with the necessary tools for creating GIFs from video clips.
