The animation bar now shows all your frames. PS will automatically convert that clip into layers/frames, and then your screen will look like this: If you select more than that, it’s totally fine because you can always delete frames if you don’t select enough, you’ll have to redo this entire process.

You’ll have to have your video already downloaded to your computer for this to work. This will bring up a menu for you to choose which video you want your gif from. Next, go to File > Import > Video Frames to Layers: If the bar isn’t there for you, you’ll have to go to Window > Animation.
