It would be nice to have better support for ANIMs, similar to the way that Videos are handled.
Currently, we can either:
- Load and start playing an anim but then we have no way of updates (e.g. progress slider), events or canceling it while it's playing. We have to wait until it's finished.
Or
- Load the anim and display one frame at a time, on an interval. This allows for updates, handling of events and canceling playback.
Finally, although both the above methods work fine (with their limitations) on non-Classic systems with plenty of horsepower, I haven't been able to find a method to playback an Anim (even 320x200) on a Classic (060 with PicassoIV for example) at speeds faster than a slideshow. Is there any hope of addressing this?
