I was using Aeon Madnox and there was a cool feature that would animate (some of) the movie posters in a wall tile display. Is this available in Rapier?

I have already checked that option in the view/options menu, but no animated posters. These were working with Madnox, so I believe they are all there correctly. Could it be that animated fan-art (background) is interfering with the posters wanting to animate?
Do you mean animated gif posters automatically downloaded?
That option is available from the view options menu.
Press up or left (depending on the view type) to go to the top options menu bar. Click the view options menu and the setting for animated posters will appear.
This setting will work for all view types in the movie library.

Which view type do you use?
And which version of Rapier?

Sometimes it is 2-3 seconds, sometimes 20 seconds or more. This is for a library of approx 1600 videos.

Also info on OS and hardware is appreciated.

I had to rebuild my kodi system, including a complete rebuild of my video library. Running the latest official LibreELEC version with all updates applied.
I can no longer get any of the posters to animate, but thinking that might because no animated posters had downloaded. I installed Artwork Beef and had it go rescan for posters, etc on the entire library. I'm not sure if any animated posters have downloaded. How can I tell? Still can't get them working like the old system did.
Does Leah download the animated posters on it's own or was I correct to install Artwork Beef? Is there some special configuration I need to do with Artwork Beef to get these animated posters? Is there a wiki somewhere that you know of that explains how to make this all work?
Thanks

Hi zigzag930
Go to the view options menu by pressing up or left (depending on the view type). Click the view options menu and the setting for animated posters will appear.
This setting will work for all view types in the movie library.
To enable animated posters you need to install script.skin.helper.service
You can go to Skin settings -> Supported addons to install missing addons.
Leia does not download the posters automatically and Artwork Beef doesn't have anything to do with this exact feature.

I already do have "animated posters" checked in the view area. Also, I double checked and skin.helper.service is installed (version 1.1.3 (Marcelveldt) and enabled.

Other than that I have no idea what's wrong.
