EasyVideoCrop
EasyVideoCrop is a tool for cropping and converting videos into formats that are easy to post online, such as GIF animations (only GIF and MP4 for now). EasyVideoCrop offers many options for compressing and tweaking the output, and has tooltips to help you learn about them.
Current status
Animated .webp exporting coming soon™.
.webm video exporting planned sometime, I'll have to learn how to optimize VP8 / VP9 / AV1. Not a high priority.
EasyVideoCrop mostly does what I want it to do, so I don't have a lot of plans to work on this unless I learn new ways to optimize gifs/videos. If you're experienced with FFmpeg or ImageMagick or another tool for optimizing gifs and videos, please send me a message and help me out.
There's various small improvements that could be made, for example the program appears to freeze when it's converting a file, but I don't see that as important to fix so I can't be bothered to. I'll probably polish that kind of things sometime but I don't know when.
Linux version is planned, I will make it sometime in the future when I get more familiar with Linux development.
Mac version not planned.
