Could you post something to youtube and link it here?Thanks! I wish we had some better way of posting animations here. Animated GIFs bloat up pretty quickly, so I have to sacrifice frame rate, image size, and color depth quality to post even the shortest animation to avoid the 1MB file size limit. I have posted the better version at DA.

There is APNG but sadly support for them has been slow to adopt from software developers and web companies. Same story for MNG, though detractors of that cite the decoder overhead as the reason for not wanting to support it.
I believe it's only available for Mac these days, because Apple announced back in 2016 that the Windows version is dead. They gave up patching the Windows version, so it became obsolete.I think there's still QuickTime...
Now that's a format I've never heard of before. Thanks for the link Kage.Here's handy notes for WebP for those looking for animated image formats.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebP#cite_note-59In September 2010, Fiona Glaser, a developer of the x264 encoder, wrote a very early critique of WebP.[19] Comparing different encodings (JPEG, x264, and WebP) of a reference image, she stated that the quality of the WebP-encoded result was the worst of the three, mostly because of blurriness on the image. Her main remark was that "libvpx, a much more powerful encoder than ffmpeg's jpeg encoder, loses because it tries too hard to optimize for PSNR" (peak signal-to-noise ratio), arguing instead that "good psycho-visual optimizations are more important than anything else for compression."[19]
In October 2013, Josh Aas from Mozilla Research published a comprehensive study of current lossy encoding techniques[58] and was not able to conclude WebP outperformed JPEG by any significant margin.[59]
