Don't use it your Pi2, it will crash your machine.

Animated Gif support is only available in v16 Jarvis as per the 1st post in this thread

Might be worth to mention, that this doesnt work if you put that gif on a NAS...

[movie78]

No issue with Window Server

[Skank]

Issue is already known

Didn't see it writen anyware.

And why put the gif on a NAS is not a good idea as kodi can see the file content ?

The database with animated gifs Kyra for Kodi is using is available for everyone.
I have added over 170 animated covers and 280 backgrounds from movies to it (and more be added. I still have around 200 on my HD to process). Every animated gif is renamed to it's imdb number (themoviedb.org number is also available). The original as an resized version is available.

Since I only use it in the app, the database is in json format. You can find it at this location: http://www.consiliumb.com/animatedgifs/movies.json

An entry looks like this:



You can construct the url to the image using the baseURL (http://www.consiliumb.com/animatedgifs) and the image name:

An example (resized version):

Code:

http://www.consiliumb.com/animatedgifs/tt1074638_poster_0.gif

An example (original version):

Code:

http://www.consiliumb.com/animatedgifs/tt1074638_poster_0_original.gif

I could upload a .zip file but it will be around 1.2 GB in size. Quite a lot to download.

I have downloaded those gifs from everywhere. If data is incorrect or you are the creator, just leave me a message and I will correct it.
If you have an addition, please let me know.

I hope I can make some people happy, there are really a lot of cool animated gifs made!

great job on this.


maybe i am missing something though but aren't most of these pretty much unusable because of how low the resolution is? i tried a few and they are insanely pixelated.

[Karnage11]

How would I add it?

For each animated gif there are two versions. A resized version (which I use in the app) and the original (non resized version).

An example (resized version):

Code:

An example (original version):

Code:

http://www.consiliumb.com/animatedgifs/tt1074638_poster_0_original.gif

I don't think they are meant to be displayed full screen (although the original versions look fine full screen on an iPhone 6 or iPad Air).
The resized version for a poster is 124x178 pixels and a background is 316x178 pixels.

This database just contains links to animated gifs.

Good job.

A video tutorial will be very helpful.

I personally don't think this is the way to go. This weekend I will add another 150 backgrounds. The database will grow very fast. First searching in a json file, construct a link and then download it. Not very user friendly.
I think a website is much better :-)
You can then search for a movie, see the animated gifs and if there's an API to talk to, it will be a lot easier for apps.

Something the TheLogoDB.com. That would be perfect!

I have no idea if there's someone who could help with that.
A domain name and hosting space I can take care of.

ok great, so for someone like myself who is only using these on a 65" tv setup they really aren't high res enough to use it seems. there are a few that still look good though.
