------- Comment #3 from Tim-Philipp Müller  2007-12-12 12:17 UTC -------
I have a patch to make gdkpixbufdec decode gif animations, but haven't applied
it because GdkPixbufLoader will decode the entire animation into raw RGB frames
before returning the first frame, which works fine for small smiley animations,
but will just blow up if you try to watch, say, screencasts created by byzanz.

I hope the ffmpeg decoder is a bit smarter than that.
