Before video was the norm online there was a product that converted video to gifs. it was excellent but I cannot remember it's name!

But, you can do this in Quicktime Pro.

After extracting the video from the DVD, (i assume this is what you are trying to do), open the file in Quicktime. Then export as image sequence, import these files in image ready and export as gif animation.

There might be an quicker way but this is the easiest to me.

There are loads of ways of doing this and you may allready have tools that can do it.

If you have Flash you can import movies to frames and then export this as an animated gif.

As digilee says quicktime is also a good bridge between video and web optimisers like ImageReady and FireWorks.

The DVD files, ts, vob etc need to be converted to a Quicktime format first.
I'm not going to get into that as this goes into the area of pirating.

Well, there's always the down n' dirty method of playing your video in QT on-screen, and just doing a screen/window capture every few frames...

...then importing all those captures into Photoshop/ImageReady..

But that might take a while..
