Description Gergely HORVÁTH 2022-11-09 13:21:18 UTC

In neochat when a video or animated gif arrives. the thumbnail gets presented correctly, however, when I try to play it, the screen opens a big black view, with a rotating gear inside, but nothing actually gets displayed. In the meantime the console pops the following messages:

```sh
Sequential devices are not supported

Looks like there is a qt bug specifically with webp which is the image you linked (https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-70245). Since this is resolved it'll work eventually, maybe even get backported.

For all other animated image types you get a static image because we use Image and not AnimatedImage

Sound promising, thank you!
