Hi there, Wanting to use image_player to play animated .gif from a usb unfortunately all .gif are static and they display as static for the amount of time specified under duration. Is there a fix for this?

Hoping to play/loop/skip animated .gif

Thanks

Pygame does not allow for animated gif to be played. you should convert the gif to regular video files and use the video looper for the videos. cheers
