GIF looping stops Quick Slideshow (2.32)

Post by Tychoid »

Options >>> View >>> Misc. >>> GIF loop ON

Animated GIF loops forever when checked, effectively stopping the quick slideshow when GIF file is reached.

I can confirm this is still an issue in 2.46

It looks like this issue was accidentially introduced to the standard slideshow (.sld file) functionality in 2.49. If a slideshow plays an animated GIF file with the "GIF loop" option enabled, it loops indefinitely. I tested rolling back to 2.48 and GIFs were functioning normally (just looping up to the time limit, then advancing), so the issue is most likely related to one of the two slideshow GIF changes in 2.49.

I am experiencing this issue now as well, having just upgraded from 2.48 to 2.49.1. Should I downgrade, or stick with it assuming a fix is coming soon?

Thanks!
