Maybe you could help me? When I use ScreenToGif (on windows if that matters) they come out huge and with a play button and progress bar, like this. Do you know what I’m doing wrong or how to fix it?
It’s hard to say. When I record them I generally record at about 1200x700 with 144 DPI. Then when I save I save as Gif using the Neural Network setting. I leave most of the settings as default but sometimes I remove duplicate frames to help reduce the size.
EDIT: What resolution is your source video file? I know my Voyager episodes are 480p which is not ideal That will have a huge impact on the quality of the gifs. You also want to upload to a place like Imgur that allows larger gif sizes.
Hmm. I don’t see where to set the DPI. I also used the Neural Network setting and the defaults. I tried uploading to Imgur instead of to my computer and straight to Lemmy, no change. I don’t have a way to host videos, and the only platform that doesn’t black out video recordings is youtube, so that’s where I’ve been sourcing, it’s 240p. I wonder if it’s that I’m on Lemmy.world- I see you’re on Lemm.ee, I don’t know if that would make a difference.

Oh, well, thanks for the tips, I’ll keep trying!
