AVI to GIF converter

Turn old AVI videos into animated GIFs in your browser, without converting them to MP4 first.

How to use it

  1. Drop your AVI file into the box above.
  2. Drag the purple handles under the video to choose the part for the GIF.
  3. Pick the width and frame rate, press Convert and download the GIF.

Why use it

AVI is an older Windows video format that often contains XviD, DivX or MJPEG video. Browsers can't play AVI, so FixGif first makes a quick preview, then builds the GIF from the original file.

Many AVI files have gaps in their index, which makes some converters produce grey or broken frames. FixGif decodes such files carefully from the start of your clip, so the GIF stays clean.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to convert AVI to MP4 first?

No. Drop the AVI file directly; the converter reads XviD, DivX, MJPEG and other common AVI codecs.

Why does the preview take a few seconds?

Browsers can't show AVI video, so a small preview is made first. It only takes a moment and the GIF is made from the original.
