GIF file inspector: inputs, results and limitations
Check GIF dimensions, file size and frame descriptors before choosing how to use the asset.
How to use GIF file inspector
- Choose the appropriate input file. General limits are 30 MB per file and 100 MB total.
- Run the tool once the input is ready.
- Inspect the preview or result, then download a new file.
An illustrative use case
A GIF dimensions and frame-descriptor report before choosing another workflow.
Select a real sample file you are allowed to process. Begin with a short, simple input before attempting a complex document or recording.
What to inspect in the output
Compare the reported canvas dimensions and byte size with the source file. Frame descriptors describe the encoded structure; do not treat them as a playback timing analysis.
Where this tool stops
Reports file dimensions, frame descriptors and byte size. Does not recompress GIFs.
Troubleshooting GIF file inspector
Check that the original clip plays in this browser. Keep requested times within its duration and leave this tab active while real-time recording completes. If a codec is rejected, use a supported source rather than only changing its extension.
