You will also need AviSynth. You need to created .avs file with that program for the video file. The easiest done is to open a new txt file and write: DirectShowSource("D:\Video.mkv"). D:\Video.mkv is the location and the type of the file, then save that txt as .avs. Then you open virtualdub and from file->open video file, you choose that .avs file. Depending on the resolution of the video, you may need to click on it with the right click after it opens and choose something like 50%, in order to not be covering the whole screen (that's if it's HD). After you load the .avs file, you go to video->filters and click on add and choose resize, from there you can input the wanted resolution of the gif you are going to make. Depending on the source (raw dvd or encoded video file), you may need more filter (for raw dvd), like deinterlace. Then you go to video->frame rate. In order for the gif to not be very heavy and work smoothly, you may need to use: process every other frame (decimate by 2) or every third frame (decimate by 3), which means if in the end you have total 90 frames, in the end gif they will be 45 or 30. I'm usually using decimate by 3. This is the main configuration, from here on, you need to choose which part you want to be made by gif and you can see down the line that there is frame numbers and you can choose the frames you want and delete the rest. After you are done file->export->animated gif->infinity loop and directory and click ok.
