   Why not use the Windows Snipping Tool (--S)? And I don't   
   see any advantage in converting the mp4 to animated gif format. But   
   if you really want:   
      
   ffmpeg -i input.mp4 output.gif   
      
   I suppose, most people already have ffmpeg installed (it is a   
   command line tool, so it doesn't need to be "installed", but just   
   copied to your disk), because it is THE all-purpose video tool.
