Animated GIFs?

#1 I have the same problem i hope that anyone help us????

#2 AnimatedBitmapCtrl works for me, however I would think your files would need to be *.png or *.jpg, not *.gif.

You have to use a *.dml file to set up your animation as well, I'm assuming you did this correctly?

#3 Hi Tim
Can u explain how u did that with AnimatedBitmapCtrl and if u can give example about it because i need it
thankx for ur help and if that can email me: mahmoud_omara@hotmail.com

#4 And sorry i forget How i use a *.dml file to set up my animation or where i can find any resource about that

#5 My advice would be to convert it to a real video format and then convert it to Theora.

#6 To setup a *.dml file, each frame of the image needs to be a seperate file.

mybitmap_1.png
mybitmap_2.png
mybitmap_3.png

(You should be able to use a JPEG, as well.)

Then create a new file, with the extension .dml, and enter the name of each image, on a seperate line. Do not include the extension.

mybitmap_1
mybitmap_2
mybitmap_3

Save, load up GUI editor, and point to the DML file.

You could also do as David mentioned, and go real video format -> theora, but I'm not sure how your file sizes will compare. Once you get a setup going for converting to the theora format, it would probably be much more convenient if your going to need multiple animated images.
