Progress indication sometimes isn't appearing for .mov files

[tconroy]

I have a ~30 second .MOV file. When I drop it into DropToGif, I see the first frame flicker in the app, then nothing. Doesn't appear convert it or do anything.

[tconroy]

Ah never mind, it came through, just took a very long time. So it worked, but no progress indicator or anything was kinda strange.

Are you able to add information about the mov file? File size, encoding, which app originally had exported/saved it?

[tconroy]

Sure.

File Size: 21.8 MB
Codec: H264 MPEG-4 AVC (part 10) (avc1)
Display Resolution: 956x520
Frame Rate: 59.99 FPS

Not sure which app originally created it as it was sent to me by a friend, but I believe it was a cell phone video, likely from an iPhone.

It looks like the app is freezing for me when I drop a .mov (pretty small, 6MB, 10s)

Same happens to me with a .mov recorded with QuickTime Player.

I initially thought the program didn't convert .mov's, when I dropped a .mov exported from "Voila" app, nothing happened

After a while I noticed the "convert" tasks and later on a converted .gif on the same folder, but no indicators from the UI (that's why I dropped the same .mov 4-5 times initially)

I can't reproduce. Is one of you able to share a non-working video file?

Also, could one of you try this Terminal command, try to convert, then paste the output in here?

/Applications/Droptogif.app/Contents/MacOS/Drop\ to\ GIF

Alternatively see if the Console app shows anything of interest around the time of the crash

Just tested again, both the GUI and the CLI, works as expected with the same video, might have been a first launch thing

@kaansoral I can confirm the first launch thing.
