I checked in Kodi/user data/addon data/script.module.metadatautils/animatedgifs and its empty...
I remember you had to add a line of code somewhere for skin.helper.service I think it was to search and download them, but cant for the life of me remember where it was supposed to go or the line that needed to be added.
Animated PNG posters were working up until about 3 weeks ago. Animated GIFs do work but you need to add
<videoextensions>
<add>.gif</add>
</videoextensions>
to advancedsettings.xml (or create that file) under Userdata to enable GIFs. But the problem with this is that it only works with files GIFs that are stored locally. This means that you have to manually add animated gifs to each movie. When animated PNG posters were working, they also worked from my NAS. Apparently there is a workaround for this requires making changes to the Kodi database and I'm not sure exactly what file we are talking about.
but from what we read, it is not a problem of kodi, but of the skin? this is true?
