- What happens
- Every frame keeps its timing at a steady 25, 30, or 50 fps in an H.264 MOV. Transparent areas become white. Tiny GIFs are enlarged by whole pixels so video players accept them.
- Limits
- The MOV plays once, like any video; loop it in your editor or player. It has no sound, since GIFs have none.
