smoothGIFplayer.exe is a small 32bit app that will play large gif files without flickering.

Your source gif must first be copied to the Temp directory and renamed "smooth.gif"


FileCopy "[PubDir]source.gif" "[TempDir]smooth.gif"


The gif player will resize to fit your rectangle object.

ShowObject "RectangleGIF" "None" "0"
RunInRectangle "RectangleGIF" "[PubDir]smoothGIFplayer.exe" "[TempDir]smooth.gif" "" "" "[smoothGIF]"


To stop the player :

CloseApp "[smoothGIF]" "ForceClose"
HideObject "RectangleGIF" "None" "0"

or

CloseApp "[PubDir]smoothGIFplayer.exe" "ForceClose"
HideObject "RectangleGIF" "None" "0"


The gif player will loop forever. If you want it to only play once, set a timer to CloseApp after the required duration.
