Gif anim playback on amiga / PC
« on: March 24, 2005, 03:40:05 PM »
Hi,

http://www.teague.abelgratis.com/SNACKS.GIF

After revisiting Imagine, i came up with this animated logo.  On my A1200 060 this spins around merrily, but on my girlfriends 1.8Ghz PC it crawls!  Is this an issue with my gif, or with her IE settings?

Cheers

How does it look in proper browsers on her PC? :-).

-edit-
Yeah it shows up just fine here, both IE and FF.

@lurkist

On my old PII/400MHz/Win98SE/IE7(I think it's 7) pc, your Snack animgif cycles in about 4.5 seconds. It looks slightly jerky.

On my A1200T/1260-64MHz/WB3.9/IBrowse 2.3 it cycles in under 2 seconds and is as smooth as silk.

Conclusion? Answers here please.

JaX
Be inspired! It\\\'s back!

Hmm, looks like i'll have to drop the frame count to work for the general populous, shame.  Amiga triumphs again!

All I can think of is some odd version difference in gif formats resulting in the timing going funny.
As much as it kills me to say this, get MS Gif animator off the web and check the duration of frames. ms gif animator is like a lowest common denominator of gif animators, so it should give you an idea.

Looks fine on my 1.6GHz Pentium-M using both IE and FF.  It's probably her settings.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(
