How to convert VOB to GIF

  1. 1

VOB to GIF, asked and answered

Does converting VOB to GIF lose quality?

Yes. VOB has already discarded some detail and GIF discards more, because re-encoding starts from what survived the first pass rather than from the original. If you need every detail kept, convert to PNG instead.

Can I convert the GIF back to VOB?

Yes, and the file will open — but a round trip is not free. Each pass re-encodes, so going VOB to GIF and back leaves you with less than you started with.

What can I change about the GIF it produces?

You can set the resolution, an exact width, how it fits, the frame rate, which way to turn it, whether to mirror it, and where it starts and stops. Anything left on Auto is decided by the encoder, which is usually the right answer unless you are targeting a specific size or device.

Where does the conversion happen?

On our server. The file is sent over HTTPS and converted in a sandbox with no network access of its own; your input and the result go together, removed at once if it fails and otherwise kept for a few minutes so you can download them, then deleted — whether or not you did. There are no accounts for anything to be kept against.

Is there a limit on file size?

Yes — there is a per-file cap and an hourly job limit, because this runs on one small server. The API page states the limits currently in force rather than a number baked into this page.
