So, I have an HTML5 banner that need to be trafficked through DCM. I have a 75 frame animated gif that I want to loop throughout, it plays fine in Hype and when I run it through the HTML5 validator but when we put it into DCM it stops playing almost halfway through the 15 seconds (at the 6:15 mark). Any ideas on what could be causing this?
On another note, is there a new DCM export script for Hype 4? I’m able to advanced export using the script but when I try exporting as DCM DoubleClick like I used to no zip file is created.
This sounds like exactly what I would do if I ran an ad network: make sure GIFs don't endlessly loop -- this is likely the result of them modifying the GIF file itself to remove looping and set the loop to a limit of 3. One workaround would be to re-load the GIF after a set amount of time (actually redownload it, since hiding it and showing it wouldn't restart it). Here's one way: Animated GIF's play only the first time their scene is visited - #13 by MarkHunte
But this might violate their terms in some way.
We don't limit the trial -- you're getting all the latest goodies.
