GIF images are the perfect way to relay short animations over the Internet, thanks to their small file size and reduced bandwidth footprint. They only require a web browser or a lightweight image viewer to be opened on any computer.

Video files, on the other hand, usually take up a fair amount of your system resources, especially if they happen to be in a high definition format. They are also much more difficult to share with your friends, due to their large size.

openAviToGif creates a middle ground for this problem, by allowing you to convert video files to GIFs and obtain their benefits, while also keeping the video's resolution and most of its quality. The application supports AVI, MKV or MP4 formats and it imposes no resolution or length limits on the output file.

As you might expect, the process damages the original quality of the video, so you cannot obtain a crystal clear GIF, regardless of the source resolution and encoding quality.

The conversion process can be extremely system demanding, especially in the case of larger files, so in order to speed it up, openAviToGif enables you to manually choose how many CPU threads to dedicate to the application.

You can also enable the GPU processing, which takes advantage of your graphics card during the process. The option is recommended only to those who own a high-end graphics processor though, due to the high amount of video memory needed for the conversion.

Even if the application is designed to be friendly with newcomers and inexperienced users, it also offers a few valuable advanced settings that can please the enthusiasts as well. Overall, openAviToGif is a useful software solution that handles video to GIF conversion as well and as fast as you need it to.
