does or can the htc hero play animated .gif images?
if so how can this be achieved?
im running cm7, 2.3.3, & both my processor & graphics are overclocked.
is there something we can edit in the builb.prop to see animated gifs, or a script.
thanks

What's your end purpose? If on a website look into jsani
Currently the only way I know is to load up a sense ROM and view image through the gallery.

They just enabled animated gif in CM7 nightly. Works all the way up to a 32px x 32px image.

im looking to get animated gifs to work in both a browser & in some games i have, & a chat room one game has.
also the gifs (animation) in this game are needed to be able to see if the "item" is on & working or not.
im a mod for this game, & need to make sure ppls avatars are ok, & dont contain anything inappropriate, & if their avatar is a gif, i cant tell, b/c i cant see them moving

is there a way to pull this gif code/files off the nightly & put it into the cm7.0.3 stable release.
oh, what nightly version are you referring to?

the animated bootscreen from the htc nexus, as seen in this video.
it is rotated to portrait and shown in fullscreen. this was requested in this thread.
download the bootscreen and apply as update.zip with recovery image.
if want to go back to stock look here.
Checking it out:
Edit:
Works nicely, comes up instead of HTC after the Hero screen. Slightly pixelly but other than that, is good! Nice one!
Just tested it, and i really like it
Nice one Loving it
Nice work bro, added it for my next release of HERO21-1.7, I make sure to leave creds for your work in my OP
Wicked. I just booted the phone 3 times to see the wonderful bootscreen. Hypnotic.

wow, thanks
i tried to make it that first the hero with the two nandroids appear, then the looping nexus screen. didn't work out as i couldn't align the pictures correctly, but i'll be working on that, maybe i can figure it out on friday (gonna have a hangover, tomorrow is the company christmas party ). i like the hero animation with the sound (only the two short android noises, not the htc noise) and the phone is still the hero. also goes great with the original splash screen. i'll let you know if i can make it in time for your 1.7 release, will be an exclusive first then drop me a pm if you have an eta yet, i won't tell anybody

1.7 is released and the bootscreen u made really gave a beauty enhancement. Been reading alot about the bootanimations and figured out that 2.0 does support the droid and nexus type of boot.img, just need to resize all the pngs in bootscreen.zip and change settings in the file in that zip and then finally add the bootanimation binary from nexus. Just didnt have the time to do it, gonna add that later for 1.8 release if people want
Is it possible for me to add this to a stock Sprint Hero? If so, can I choose to replace the Sprint animation w/ the Nexus Bootscreen.
Thanks.
guys.. any idea if it possible to run these bootanimations in Eclair AOSP? becuase AOSP roms dont use animated gif rather use 2 single png files which give a animation sort of feeling not original animation. cheers

yeah i have read what behnaam said. thing is that he is talking about 2.1 series not AOSP series. he meant that he will make his next 2.1 release such that it will support the bootanimation.zip file which contains 2 animation file and 1 plays after another like FLAN (nexus). he dint say that he will make AOSP like that.
so i want to know if it is possible to make AOSP to support playing animated gif file as bootanimation.
cheers

Hi there,
i would like to create an Resident Evil Umbrella Corporation style theme for our droids, perfect would be an animated Umbrella Corp Logo live wallpaper.
Could anyone create a live wallpaper from this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzHcZabNGqw
Best would be if the Umbrella Corp letters on the left corner could disappear.
Thanks, would really be great
Download the video using any means.
Convert it to a bunch of images (pngs)
Use a batch rename program like (faststone) to rename em to 1.png,2.png,3.png....
Go in the nexus themes/apps section and look for my "Custom Lwp Script" or in market an app called Custom Lwp if i recall.
They both allow u to create lwp out of sequence of images.
Good Luck
Thanks for the hint
It gaves me 360 images in reduced quality, isn't maximum of images 300?

Hmm yes it is.
Either eliminate some while maintaining a smooth animation or get the app i was talking about from market "Custom Lwp" if i recall.

Reads the pictures from sd card, right? hmmm... not so good for card life, especially when running a desire hd rom which works half from sd, too.
i've notice that on the custom lwp it says that it must be the exact same size as the phone resolution but for live wallpapers like mariolive its scrollable would we be able to make scrollable LWP with this as well?
threads a little bit old but i was wondering if anyone knew how to convert a swf to individual png's frame by frame, searching google got me everything in reverse but nothing like i wanted

Actually pretty sure you can convert an swf to an avi and then convert that to individual pngs.
Avi to pngs can be done with gimp and the gap package.

Would drain your battery, but you can use Video Live Wallpaper.
Lets you set your own video as a live wallpaper.
as far as killing your SD Card, would you be able to push the files to your device internal storage?
Perhaps not, im not too familiar with your device.
Sorry if this doesn't work.
Well I was fed up of not having any decent livewallpapers on my hero and stumbled across a livewallpaper called video live wallpaper.
This livewallpaper lets you play a video loop as a wallpaper, having just installed dreamscenes on my laptop, I put two and two together and thought why not.
After a few hours of trying various conversion formats I have found the settings to run dreamscape mpg's (dreamscapes must be in video format not dream.) as a livewallpaper on your hero, this looks really good and makes the hero look like its running really complex live wallpapers!
Anyway it works really well and is very stable and looks really good, so thought I would share it! If you check out the short video you can see a few running!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pp3pNwQetds
If you want to do this you will need:-
video live wallpaper app (free from market)
Any video converter (free on download.com)
dreamscences in a movie format (google them) or www.dreamscenes.org
You then simply need to convert the dreamscene and run it with the live wallpaper app.
Ive found that the optimum settings for conversion that give the best look/performance balance are:-
Profile= customisied AVI movie
Codec= XVID
Frame size = 352x240
Bitrate = 12000
Frame rate = 15
You can tweak these values but be warned I found that if you go too high your poor old hero will start locking up, at these values I get no performance issues and battery consumption is on par with other live wallpapers, anyway enjoy
Oh and just to be extra nice here are the three from the video, ready converted for you to try if you can't be bothered to convert your own
View attachment Bokeh_xvid.zip
View attachment reactor_1680_xvid.zip
View attachment silky-dance_xvid.zip
(Oh yeah btw you need a custom rom to run live wallpaper on your hero, search development if you dont know how!!)
And just so you know, on my phone ADW launcher didnt seem to like this wallpaper so I swapped to launcher pro and it was fine!
If anyone finds any other cool dreamscenes, please feel free to add them to this thread to give people a selection to use.
EDIT...here's a few more I've converted
View attachment Underwater_xvid.zip
View attachment UnderseaHD_xvid.zip
View attachment 506581
View attachment Colormetry_xvid.zip
View attachment blueUV_xvid.zip
this is fantastic. will be trying this tomorrow.
nice ! I will try it soon !
Looks great, thanks!
...and BTW: I love the swing effect when changing home screens, how did you achieve this? What ROM are you using? Is it possible with CM6?

ROM is froyo 2.2.1 special edition final with fly kernel 12a overclocked to 710mhz
Transition effects are in the latest launcherpro release
In theory any ROM should work as long as it has the live wallpaper hack included, not sure how they will perform, maybe some will run better than others, if anybody feels like posting performance results on other ROMs that would be useful
Just found a site with lots of free dreamscenes to play with

No problem my friend, theres also some cool transitions on ADW launcher now as well if you like that sort of thing
And a little update for anyone trying the dreamscene videos, there seems to be so sort of problem with the video live wallpaper app, after a few days use it starts to really affect performance on my phone, am thinking some sort of memory leak (Im no dev so not sure really) stopping app then rebooting sorts out the problem.
Anyway I've emailed dev about it but if anyones clued up and knows what there looking at, then any input would be good
Hey!
I'm the dev of the VLW. I downloaded one of the videos of the original post and I'll be testing it on my device to see it anything weird starts occuring after a while.
Though I have the Desire HD so I might not have any problems. We'll see.

Thanks for having a look at this for us, would be nice to use this as an every day live wallpaper......and yeah I reckon the desire hd will cope slightly better than our little old heros hehe
Very nice work!
When I get home from work I might try this on my Desire HD too
Very nice!!!!!
I'm just wondering, cause I like it, and would like it as my wallpaper, more then my boot animation..
i would think this would drain a LARGE amount of your battery
I use live wallpapers, that are constantly running, and I still get about 9-10 hours of battery

Pull the png image you want from the bootanimation.zip file and put it in a folder on your sdcard... open your gallery select the file you loaded and make it your wallpaper.

Just installed this on my G Tab running CM7. Looks awesome! Just like Honeycomb. Thanks mad-Murdock.
I thought I'd pass this along as its a simple theme install via CM versus all of the system ui editing and file replacements.

Sorry i meant to ask if running the CM7 rom gives good video playback...
I can't seem to get any screenshots either but it does look nice.
So far the Only drawback I have seen so far is where the Date is on the right side of the Notification bar when you slide it down (or up depending on whether you want it on the top or bottom) is removed and the "honeycomb" styled icons (HOME MENU BACK) are in its place there.
Not a biggie really.
this is sweet! its nice to be able to change themes so easily, like it should be!
Can I use it without CM7? Currently I have some small problems in install CM7...
yes. It requires CM7 to be used. what problems are you having with installing cm7 on your gtablet?
