Hello, Using this config on plasmawindowed: pathList={"path":"https://media.giphy.com/media/AsnwZm3ttHnFu/giphy.gif"\\,"type":"file"},{"path":"https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/41/Dore-munchausen-illustration.jpg/100px-Dore-munchausen-illustration.jpg"\\,"type":"file"} Bart is shown when applet is opened. Afterwards, it is gone. This is the log I got: Adding "https://media.giphy.com/media/AsnwZm3ttHnFu/giphy.gif" as remote file Can't watch remote file "https://media.giphy.com/media/AsnwZm3ttHnFu/giphy.gif" for changes Adding "https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/41/Dore-munchausen-illustration.jpg/100px-Dore-munchausen-illustration.jpg" as remote file "https://media.giphy.com/media/AsnwZm3ttHnFu/giphy.gif" doesn't exist locally, trying remote.

It seems that it could not save the cache file, but it believed that it did.
BTW, with https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/129227/, the same image can generate a segfault. This might give some hint about the problem.
Seems to work perfectly for me now with that remote image even after restarting plasmashell.
