Please add support for ffmpeg or ImageMagick/ImageMagick conversion of animated GIFs to the more space efficient WEBM, MP4 or Both

while i would like the application to create both and keep the smaller or the results some people might prefer one or the other of the formats or both if trying to cover all bases for a website

i have seen 1.5mb files shrink to less then 50k so savings can be significant

some people might not want to convert animated GIFs so having it disabled by default would be fine

This issue got no reply originally, I'm sorry for that.

I understand that there can be considerably optimisation when converting animated gif to a video file, but conversion to different formats especially non image ones is out of scope of this tool.
