Feature: APNG Playback as Animated GIFs in Preview

Open nanpuhaha opened this issue 7 months ago • 1 comments

What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

The preview feature currently doesn't show APNG files at all. It would be really useful if it could play APNG animations, kind of like how it handles GIFs.

APNG has better quality than GIF, so please support it.

Thanks for thinking about it!

Requirements

Thank you for your feedback. Files uses the same preview handlers available to File Explorer, for apng to work, you'll have to install an application that adds this preview handler to Windows.
