Can anyone help me work out why animated posters aren't working for me? If I've read correctly, they are natively supported in Krypton (I'm on 17.3) and I'm using the Krypton branch of the skin from github, updated just a few minutes ago. I see an option for "animatedposter" in the "Choose art" dialogue and I can browse to a gif, select it, apply but then the poster still just looks static. I've even tried setting the gif as the normal poster and the thumbnail but I still see a static poster.
I can't see any options to enable/disable this feature in skin settings. I've made sure I have all addons in the 'Required' and 'Recommended' sections. I wasn't sure if Skin Helper Service was required but that's not made a difference. Anyone got this working?

The gif must be stored locally and referenced by a local path, I don't understand why but that has got it working.
