Using that command, the gif.gif file in the bin folder will be converted to output.webm and then you're ready to upload and post on the forums

-x265-params allows you to encode in h.265.

For example, -t 00:00:10 cuts out the first ten seconds of the video for conversion, and -ss 00:00:10 -t 00:00:10 would skip the first ten seconds and cut out the next ten for conversion. use -t in tandem to set the file duration. Takes time in seconds as a parameter or HH:MM:SS syntax. You should probably not touch this unless you know what you're doing. Sometimes setting to 1 will give you a smaller filesize.

-ac: Sets number of audio channels, normally 2 or 1.

Enter the number of cores your processor has as a parameter or put 0 to use them all.

-threads: Tells ffmpeg to use multithreading.

Some options include libvorbis, libmp3lame, etc.

-c:a: Specifies the audio codec to use.

If you are looking for a smaller file size, consider leaving this out. Only use this option if you desire a constant bitrate, which will produce a higher quality file. b:v sets video bitrate and -b:a sets audio. Nevertheless, you will almost always use libvpx for the video. webm isn't actually an encoding type unto itself, but an audio/video container, like mkv.

-c:v Specifies the video codec to use.

-i Tells ffmpeg what the input file is.

To actually convert the file, you're gonna want to know what the commands are and what they do. You'll be greeted by a nice command line. Once that's done, extract it and place the gif/video you want to convert into the bin folder.

To use ffmpeg, you'll need to download it and run it from the link above. It also doubles as a h.265 converter if you're into that It's a command line converter and it's simple to use, usually fast and lets me choose between a lot of quality options. If I've got a gif that i want to convert to a webm or a video i want to do the same with and don't want to edit it, I'll just use ffmpeg. But the downside to this is that you've got no real control over the quality settings that they use. There's many ways to convert gifs to webm, such as just uploading them to a service that'll do it for you, such as gfycat. You can now edit the video, cut it to size, etc in your favorite video editing program.

You can also demux with My MP4Box, but I prefer my way The file will be saved in the same directory as the h.264 file. Now open My MP4Box GUI and in the mux tab, add the file you just extracted. Once you've selected that, press extract. Navigate to the mkvtoolnix folder and open the file called 'MKVextractGUI'įind the mkv file you want to extract and add it to the input box, select where you want the output to go and choose the track that contains the video, it'll usually be track 1 or it'll say video. Once it's downloaded and extracted and you've installed My MP4Box, you can then start to extract the file.

If you want to download it, the zip contains a portable version of mkvtoolnix and the My MP4Box GUI installer.

#CONVERT GIFS TO WEBM MP4#

I use MKVtoolnix with MKVextract GUI to extract h.264 files from the mkv files and My MP4Box GUI to mux it into an mp4 file. To start, you're gonna need something to rip the h.264 file out of the mkv container.

This is a bit more involved but if you want to make a webm of a movie or anything that's in a MKV container you'll have to do this, especially if you want to add things or edit the video as almost all video editing programs don't support mkv files for editing. I recommend downloading the highest quality possible just to allow for headroom. On the Download Clip window, select the quality you want and make sure the format is set to MP4, set your download location and then click download. Paste the link into 4k Video Downloader, once that's done a new window will pop up saying 'parsing' then 'download clip' To do this go to the video you want to make a webm/gifv of, and copy the URL. Once it's downloaded and installed, you can then set about downloading the source video you want to edit. I use 4k Video Downloader because it's free and allows me to download the source of the videos i want to mess with. If you're just converting a gif, there's no need to look at this part, just skip to the conversion part. I'm going to split this into multiple parts to make it easier to follow, The first part will go about grabbing the source video so that you can then manipulate it to your will
