Hi, the link does not explain how to convert the GIF to MP4. It just says you can do it. May be I'm missing something?

Cloudinary supports converting between formats simply by altering the extension part of the URL. So after you upload an animated GIF to your account, you should have a URL like the following:

http://res.cloudinary.com/demo/image/upload/kitten_fighting.gif

Change the extension part ( .gif ) to .mp4 to convert it to MP4

Hi Maxim,

The video seems to be working when trying to view it.

Can you share more information regarding the errors you see?
