N900 and Gif animations
 

I wanna know that if n900 supports GIF files? If not, is there any codec regarding this mater?

I don't know why noone has answered yet, but NO!!!
The N900 does not support in ANY way the .gif format.
gif images cannot be placed as backgrounds, but that's not the most important issue; the N900 CANNOT EVEN DISPLAY GIF IMAGES!


...well, at least MOVING gif images...

i bet there are some image-viewers with gif-support, even in Easy Debian / Mer / Fedora...

Its odd actually since the About Product dialogue has a bit about Gifs

Re: N900 and Gif animations
 

the browser supports animated gifs, I have a link to the national weather service radar for my area in the simple form which is an animated gif since the browser does not support the java on the advanced version

Link is like this if you wanna try

http://radar.weather.gov/ridge/lite/N0R/LTX_loop.gif

here is page where you can figure out the link for the radar imagery you want

Hmm. The gif images won't move. Is there any add-on or patch to "fix" this?

Re: N900 and Gif animations
 

the link above for radar works for me, it doesn't for you in browser?

Re: N900 and Gif animations
 

It worked in the web browser, but not in the Photos app.

Re: N900 and Gif animations
 

that is my experience as well

Can you open .gifs with the browser?
