Public bug reported: See the attached telegram app, it supports inline GIF playback in conversations. The telegram server converts GIFs to MP4 files server- side, so gifs are just like videos but they are set to autoplay and are played in a loop.
There are multiple issues: * For once, it can only play a single inline gif at a time, if there are multiple gifs in a conversation, all but one will stay black. I suppose this is because of the hardware decoding and probably nothing we can do about it except making the app more clever so it only tries to play one of them * The short video is not played properly. I can just see the first and the last frame jumping back and forward. * Scrolling, the image in the video inverts and flickers * scrolling past the video, so that the delegate with the VideoOutput is destroyed and back so that it is recreated, crashes the app. (NOTE: The app is a work in progress, currently it doesn't do well with error handling, if you enter the phone number or pin wrong during setup, you need to restart it and start from scratch) ** Affects: media-hub (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "qtgram-ubuntu.mzanetti_0.1_armhf.click" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1636135/+attachment/4766332/+files/qtgram-ubuntu.mzanetti_0.1_armhf.click -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1636135 Title: media hub instability when trying to play inline videos To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/media-hub/+bug/1636135/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
