Luke 38500 Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 I just checked Theater, and for it's detail screen, it's asking for max-width of 800, so if it's under 800 wide, then it should work on Theater as well, and I have tested and confirmed this. Please note that over time these values could change as the layout evolves. 1
PrincessClevage 173 Posted March 22, 2018 Posted March 22, 2018 Sorry, no, not saying never. It just reminded me of the early days of web sites and all those colored, animated gifs... . In isolation (like on a detail screen), those could look cool. I don't think a whole poster wall of them at once would be desirable, however. These are very pretty and the I think there is a place for them but agree it would not be front and center, would give a nice edge over competition
Smitty018210 75 Posted March 23, 2018 Posted March 23, 2018 Please don't mis-interpret this as a commitment, but if you run the beta server, then the web app detail screen should preserve the gif animation if the source image height is less than 360. If it's larger than 360 height then we have to convert the image and that's when the animation is lost. @@skank @@SikSlayer @@kesm @@Smitty018210 @@CatSama @@legallink @@maximilianh75 @@cw-kid Thanks Luke I will take a look.

Ignore the image and video quality using free screen recorder. P.S. I created the backgrounds in a similar way, but they are mp4.

Luke 38500 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 Isn't that neat! I really wasn't expecting them to work on the list poster screens. That's probably due to the display sizes being large enough to fit your original images without requiring conversion.
Smitty018210 75 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 (edited) Yeah I keep all the images small enough so no conversion would be need. They work on the web app to as long as you have a very large screen. Both the gifs and the background videos look better on a larger screen. The gifs all need work, but for first try I am happy for the most part. Thanks for letting me know about these working with the beta server! Edited March 26, 2018 by Smitty018210
mediacowboy 438 Posted March 26, 2018 Posted March 26, 2018 I like them on the series view. Not sure about the TV show view.

Luke 38500 Posted March 29, 2018 Posted March 29, 2018 Check my comments from earlier. You can make it work, albeit in limited fashion.

Rodiefs 7 Posted March 30, 2018 Posted March 30, 2018 I just came across this today. This is awesome and I would like to see Animated gif support added and, if possible, a way to automate the download/ installation/ update process... Nice work! 1

Didn’t someone start a central repo for these?

No idea, but you might want to check here. https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/40709-animated-movie-poster/ The gifs in my video, are ones that I made myself and are not online anywhere.
Luke 38500 Posted April 8, 2018 Posted April 8, 2018 Not working in web browser I tested it, working just fine. Please read my previous post to make sure you take note of the requirements.
maximilianh75 19 Posted April 9, 2018 Posted April 9, 2018 I tested it, working just fine. Please read my previous post to make sure you take note of the requirements. It 's possible that not working because i'm using cover art plugin???? I respect the maximum resol. that you put in previous post
sleepy 10 Posted April 23, 2018 Posted April 23, 2018 It looks better than I expected it to o so another vote from me for Animated Gif's!
shpitz461 4 Posted May 11, 2018 Posted May 11, 2018 And another vote from me, this is pretty cool. So the image has to be under 800x350 for the GIF to work?

schnappi 0 Posted July 27, 2018 Posted July 27, 2018 Would be nice to be able play a few GIF's mixed in photo galleries in browser viewer, but not a big deal.
