Gif duration changer

World's simplest gif tool
This online utility lets you change the total playing time of an animated GIF file. You can specify the exact animation length (in seconds) and the utility will update the frame delays between frames so that the total delay equals the new duration. Additionally, you'll be able to see a live preview of both the original and the updated animation and download the updated file. Created by GIF experts from team Browserling.

What is a gif duration changer?

learn more about this tool
This is a browser-based program that changes the playback length of a GIF animation and allows you to set a precise time limit for the entire animation (in seconds). For example, you can slow a GIF animation down and make it run exactly 5 seconds, or 10 seconds, or if you want to, really stretch it out and make it one minute (60 seconds) long. Similarly, you can speed a GIF animation up and make it run exactly 1 second or 0.5 seconds. When you enter the new GIF duration value in the options, the program automatically calculates the time allotted for displaying each frame and overwrites the original delay values in the original GIF file. For example, if the original GIF is 2 seconds long and you want to make it 3 seconds long, then all existing frame delays are multiplied by 1.5 (3/2). This will make the GIF 50% faster. Similarly, if the original GIF is 5 seconds long and you want to make it 2 seconds long, then all delays are multiplied by 0.4 (2/5). This will make the GIF 60% slower. If the GIF frames have different delays, then this approach also preserves the original delay differences as each delay is increased (or decreased) proportionally. You can compare the durations of the input and output GIFs in your browser by turning the animations on or off with the "Play/Pause GIFs" checkbox. In the options, you can also find out the playback duration of the input and output GIFs, track the delays between the frames, find the dimensions (width/height in pixels) of the input GIF (in pixels), as well as examine the currently played frame.

Increase GIF Duration
In this example, we increase the GIF playback time by two. The initial animation with 17 frames takes 5.1 seconds to play and each frame is shown for 300 milliseconds. We set the new GIF playback time value equal to 10.2 seconds, which is twice the original time. As a result, the delay of each frame is doubled and becomes 600 milliseconds. (Source: Pexels.)

Reduce Playback Time
This example speeds up the animation and reduces its duration from 6.4 seconds to 3 seconds. The animation contains 26 frames, which have individual delays varying from 100ms to 1sec. The program uses a smart algorithm to change the playing time of the animation so that the relative frame delays are preserved in the output GIF. (Source: Pexels.)

Make an Animation 2 Seconds Longer
In this example, we're using a GIF from the legendary Wolfenstein 3D game by id Software. The animation sprites show the first boss of the game – Hans Grosse. He fires his machine guns in 2.65 seconds but that's too fast. We can't beat the boss at this speed! To make it to the next level, we slow Hans down by two seconds, making the GIF 4.65 seconds long. This way, we're able to successfully beat the first level. (Source: id Software.)
