"This package adds functionality to inline images into an org-mode buffer. The images can be present locally on the filesystem (not implemented yet) or downloaded from the internet automatically."

"Use

Call org-inline-image when the point is on the link to inline it there. The link text will be overlayed with the image. To hide the image, hit h (or call org-inline-image-hide) while the point is on the image. Gif images are animated automatically when inlined. To animate it again, hit a (or call org-inline-image-animate)."

I have done it before in OrgMode

Its very compute intensive; and, more annoying than useful mostly--but I did it many years ago, it would be interesting what percentage of computer resources are now used

But for a very small amount of computer screen real estate you can put a very long scrolling message, for example--which can be very useful if you are trying to deliver an OrgMode buffer as some sort of kiosk interface to yourself or other operators

I'll try to dig up how I did it

Just want you to know that it can be done in OrgMode--what version of Emacs, etc. is required (and why), I'm not sure

Hi there,

Does anybody know how to view an animated gif as an inline video? I can see the first frame as an inline image, but I am unable to view the video.

Thanks
