Searched if Imagetoolbox had that option, but didn’t find it.

Are there any good FOSS apps that can convert videos to gifs?

I remember Video transcoder from the past. It does not seem to be in Fdroid currently, as it is probably too old.

    No recommendations from me, but have you tried using the ffmpeg wasm webapp? It looks to have a gif option and it runs locally. For just making a gif I imagine it’s fine enough to get the job done.

      That’s cool, but the files are large (not surprising since GIF wasn’t meant for video). Any way to get more control over the output?

      Thank you.

      The scaling seems to make the the gif quality a bit too low.
      Is there a way to get it from 200 to maybe 300 or 400?

      Edit: .Searched and found another website that allows custom commands.
      Thank you

        RE your edit, mind sharing just for the record & personal edification? Or is it the ezgif site from the comments?

          https://www.rendi.dev/ffmpeg-online

          It allows the ffmpeg command to be edited.
          Seems to use ffmpeg-wasm as the other site too. I turned off internet while converting videos to see if it worked offline.

          If there was a way to save this as a zip or some app, it would be better
