This is bug 962594; I pushed in a fix last week. Debugging the problem revealed that some simple architectural changes could let us solve not only this bug but the entire category of related bugs (there are more; see for example bug 987212) in a very clean way. It will take some time to get the pieces into place, but we should be much more efficient in our handling of non-visible animated images soon. Thanks for identifying these problems and pushing to get them fixed, Roberto! - Seth _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
