• Firefox slows down when opening a site with animated gifs

  After FF4 update, I find that whenever I try to open a page that has several on this animated gifs, firefox slows down a lot. The CPU usage goes up to 50-75% and all animated gifs are moving really slow.

  It is not only large animated gifs, but it occurs also on the forums that have animated smileys. I never had this problem in FF 3.6 neither another browser (IE, Chrome, Safari). If I start FF4.0 without modules or plugins it does the same thing. Even with a new facility. Does anyone have a solution to his problem? Since I can't use some of my favorite now with FF sites, without my pc slow everything down.

  Start Firefox in Firefox to solve the issues in Safe Mode to check if one of the Add-ons is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Modules > themes).

  • Makes no changes on the start safe mode window.

  Safe mode disables extensions in Firefox 4, and disables hardware acceleration.

  • Tools > Options > advanced > General > Browsing: "use hardware acceleration when available.

• animated GIF not showing do not adequately

  I have an animated gif image, and I used http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/Java-Development/Display-an-animated-GIF/ta-p/445014 this link to animate the noise towards the top of the screen and that did not work properly

  You can see the animation below

  

  public class UpdatePopScreen extends PopupScreen{
  
          public UpdatePopScreen(){
               super(new VerticalFieldManager(), Screen.DEFAULT_CLOSE); 
  
               GIFEncodedImage ourAnimation = (GIFEncodedImage) GIFEncodedImage.getEncodedImageResource("sunblackk.gif");
              AnimatedGIFField _ourAnimation = new AnimatedGIFField(ourAnimation, Field.FIELD_HCENTER);
  
              this.add(_ourAnimation);
             add(new LabelField("Loading..."));
  
      }         
  
      }
  

  and I have attached AnimatedGIFField.java

  I think something is wrong in your establishment or the way you use this code, because it works very well for me.  Sorry you'll have to do investigative work to identify the problem.

  I suspect there are two possibilities:

  (a) you have not configured your environment properly

  (b) you use something else keeps track of events

  I think that (b) is the most likely, but to test these two at the same time, you must proceed as follows:

  Create a new project and a new example application, then, in this application, test the screen.  Nothing else in this project - it should start just a screen, the screen should have a button, when you click the button the treatment should push the pop-up screen.

  I have included my code (which combines Animation and popup screen into one file - not recommended but useful source under test).  Use this code and the image as an attachment in your new project.

  Test it on your Simulator.

  Assuming that you can get this working, then we can investigate on what is actually wrong in your application.

• YouTube / GIFs causes sound stretch and shuts down the computer.

  Hello.

  Everything worked him up until the spring of 2014 when my internet lost residence. Finally moved to another residence in summer 2014 and has noticed that when using my laptop once again that Youtube videos and animated GIFs stretched and stuttered sound and froze my computer.

  Flash player, Java, Windows Media player and IE were affected. I tried to update all but settled is constantly interrupted by error messages. It all traces back to IE but can not enter say it or re-install / update. I rather not uninstall all of the programs mentioned above for fear of these programs is not able to install afterwards. Restorations and restores system were made but only up to a point (less than a month ago) and not to the most remote, with few results.

  Also somehow had internet limited during spring 2014 from time to time but Kaspersky failed to update normally and himself knocked out. Had to use his troubleshooting and Best Buy help re - install, but it was a successful installation. Perhaps something got through that affects those above apps but Kaspersky found nothing wrong.

  A question, someone of you recommended a total OS re - install at this point? Operating system is Windows 7.

  Most often this is caused by requiring to do two things (or both):

  1. make sure you have the latest video card drivers. If you are already on the latest graphics card drivers, uninstall and install a version or a few versions behind the last to make sure this isn't a last number one driver. If you have already experienced with the driver of the card later and earlier versions, please try the driver beta for your card.

• How can I put an animated gif in (a jpeg image on)?

  Imagine that the dog is an animated gif from a video MP4 PS CS5. I want to put the dog in the black box with the text which is a jpeg file. I want the dog to always be animated.

  1 image, dog animation on black jpeg with text. This can be done? Ive been banging away at her like a monkey with a baseball bat, no luck.

  Thank you

  

  I went through and actually created this using a MP4 video.  I have CS5 accessable, so I used CS6, but it should work the same.  I made a few changes here is the process:

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  

  Now, you can save to the web as a GIF file.  The length of your video may be causing crashes.  GIFs should be of very short duration.

  Some scintillating questions GIF in the first versions of JavaFX are caused by the processor of JavaFX GIF treatment not correctly the number of scan lines in the GIF (see for example the following question - http://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-18039 - now fixed). Try upgrading to a version 2.1 beta (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javafx/downloads/devpreview-1429449.html) and see if you still have any questions.

• Animated GIF works in network, is not out?

  Greetings,
  
  I have a piece of RoboHelp (FlashHelp) at http://iqweb.mcny.edu/iqweb/Student_IQWeb/userGuide/student_IQWeb.htm, which has a few animated GIFs, you will find one at the end of the page in the book Do it online, topic view request status. There are two animated smileys aircraft marking the end of the page and the end of the documentation. This work is hosted by a server maintained internal to the college for which the piece has been developed.
  
  I have the same job hosted outside for my own portfolio at http://mywebniche.com/ID/MCNY/RoboHelp/Student_IQWeb/userGuide/student_iqweb.htm and animated GIFs don't animate.
  
  Also, when I discover the piece to the - location internal http://iqweb.mcny.edu/iqweb/Student_IQWeb/userGuide/student_IQWeb.htm to outside of school, that is to say, outside the LAN, the same animated GIFs also fail to animate.
  
  Someone has an idea, what happens? It is not a browser setting, I checked all of those, they are the same on the inside and the outside. It can be the server itself since internal server of animated GIFs work fine when displaying internal, but not of the 'outside '. Conversely, the animated GIFs in the RoboHelp on the outside Server animate very well when we look within the College LAN, but not from the outside.
  
  Why would a GIF animate a LAN, but not outside?
  
  Kind regards

• How to make animated gifs to work in FCPX?

  Hello

  How to make animated gifs to work in FCPX?

  They work in FCP7 (FCS) but not FCPX. Strange.

  Elmer

  If you had FCP7, you have Quicktime 7 Pro (upgraded automatically at installation FCP7). Check your Applications > Utilities folder.

  Open the gif in QT7 and export as... (Sequence Quicktime Movie > Open Options)... might as well go with ProRes LT and make sure that you pay attention to the size option (select current if the original is 100%).

• Java causes ff to hang/crash

  I'm having a problem with Java and firefox. Web pages that use Java or cause firefox to hang up (tabs are still clickable, and window title changes, but the page does not work), or crash all together. (I can't even use the app Java to detect on their Web site, it just pulled and never recovers)

  I tried to uninstall and reinstall Java and Firefox several times in different orders and nothing has fixed the problem yet. Java does not work in SafeMode either. I am running Windows Pro 8.1, Java 8, 45 and Firefox 37.0.2. I suspect that there is a problem with my computer or settings of Firefox because I don't get the pop-up windows asking me to allow/deny pages want to use Java as I get with IE. But Java does not work in IE either.

  If there is any other info I can give you please let me know, I'm going nuts with that to try to understand the problem and I'm stuck.

  This could give more control over java applets by allowing some websites to run java:

  • How to allow Java on trusted sites

  Also make sure you install the 32-bit version of Java, it shouldn't make a difference as far as I KNOW, but Firefox is 32-bit.

  However, it does not solve the shot. If it is reproducible on other computers, you should also contact the developer of the applet.

  With image.animation_mode already set to Normal.
  more animated gif (if not all) are to be does not move

  There is no problem in loading the image, but it seems to be limited to the first image.

  It happens even with the download of the gif, only the first image is uploaded so that the image is not as lively.

  Will there be another kernel setting in firefox that affect it?
  I tried to off the extensions and addons, but the problem persists.
  It won't happen with a new profile.

  Thanks, I found that it is from the proxy software. I froze without meaning to the animatinos.

  Help? anyone?

  Thank you

  Have a look here.

  Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default programs, "Associate a type of file or Protocol with a program", the command on my machine the default program for .gif is Internet Explorer.  Which appear to indicate a page full of IE with an animated .gif, maybe you need a third party program to do what you want?

  Go to IE tools/internet options/advanced/multimedia. Make sure that the option to play the animations is turned on. If no joy, make sure that your connections are associated with Internet Explorer - if you click on a .gif file in windows Explorer, IE should open to view it.  Some security software can disable the animation.

• Export the animated GIF on MAC

  Hello beautiful people of the internet!

  I have a small question: I always use first Pro CS6 and not the CC on my Mac version... is there a reason for me to upgrade if I want to export GIF animations faster... or is there a solution how to activate the file > load > media > animated GIF on mac?

  Unfortunately, to make a GIF animation on mac, you have to do some extra steps using Photoshop or other software that you're not supposed to do on Windows...

  On Windows first Pro CS6 supports export region selected as witch GIF animated unfortunately not the case for mac...

  Sorry to be redundant but my question is - is there a possible way to activate the function "export to animated gif" on Mac? or he did appear in later versions of first CC?

  Sincerely yours.

  Kami Inari

  Alas, export of gif is windows only.

  Workaround: Animated gif selection does not appear in the menu "output" first Pro CC?
