Hey list, I'm having some difficulty trying to track down the animated file formats supported by gdk_pixbuf_animation_new_from_file(). I am using the function via PyGI / GObject introspection.
I know for a fact that it supports animated GIFs, but beyond that, I do not know (e.g. MNG? APNG?). GIF works as a last resort for my purposes, but the constraint of 256 colours is rather limiting. I've tried looking through the Gtk+ source in gdk/* and gtk/*, but maybe I've just been looking in the wrong places. I also tried looking through what relevant documentation I could find on the Gdk's C API, and didn't manage to find what I needed. I'm guessing that perhaps this is because the actual loading is deferred to some other lower level external backend to Gdk, such as Cairo, but I'm speaking from ignorance. The reason I ask is I'd like to use some simple animation in my Gtk+ 3 / PyGI application. The animation is really too simple to warrant Clutter or GStreamer, but enough to at least need basic transparency and preferably > 8 bit colour. If anyone has any other suggestions, I'm all ears.
