Playback of optimized GIF animations
On Yuri Mezentsev's site I found several animated GIFs that are displayed correctly in Firefox and IE, but not in XnView (or I****View):
They're heavily optimized. Some (but not all) frames have a local palette.

Hello Mr. Librarian !
• I can confirm for the three images. They are badly displayed in XnView.
- They are displayed so fine in Opera 9.21 too.
- I checked in “GifMovieGear”, you are right, some frames have a local palette.
- Indeed, that programme displays the previews very nicely…
• IIRC, such an issue occured already and has been reported, but I can't find out again in which thread…

Hi again…
• Yes, they are the threads I thought to…
• However, in one your link to «fix the bug…» or so is dead, it causes an error message :
“The thread you ask for doesn't exist”.
- Maybe lost when the forum has hung for a long while (or has been hacked) and not recovered ?

Re: Ghost topic
Thanks, Clo. The topic is still there, I just had to update the link I posted in “Crash with animated gif image + ico suggestion”.Clo wrote:• However, in one your link to «fix the bug…» or so is dead, it causes an error message :

As Brotondi has pointed out, the threads containing the change logs are apparently sometimes relocated by the mods.

As Clo's protégé I'm following my mentor's example in keeping a collection of “5-legged sheep” and other zoological oddities.Clo wrote:I tested the 2 samples above in 1.93.6, both are badly displayed…
I was hoping that Maître Gougelet can find some kind of common characteristic in these animations which would allow him to track the problem down.

besides this, there's also a bug when "drawing" a selection on these animated gifs: http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?p=62820#62820
That was fast! The display bug with Runner_3.gif & 5607.gif is fixed in v1.94 beta 1. Thanks, Pierre
The issues with acu100_1.gif, estate100_3.gif & job100_1.gif are still pending, though.

acu100_1.gif and estate100_3.gif are played back correctly in v1.94.
job100_1.gif is the only one left now that's still misbehaving.
