71809 - Animated gif is too fast

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 68104

(SeaMonkey :: General, defect)

Description

[Henrik Gemal]

if you check http://www.stenhuset.dk/images/rotelogo.gif in mozilla, the 
animated gif spins around too fast. At least to read.
In IE the animation is a lot slower.

Build 20010312 on Win2k

The image sets no delay between images so it's not clear what should happen.

It spins really fast under NS 4 as well. It sounds right to me though, if there
is no delay specified the images should be shown as fast as possible.

one funny thing... when animation is loaded it's a little bit faster than ie 
but when you move your mouse next to the animation it spins faster than without 
mouse movement.

Martin, what you describe is bug 35819.

Duplicate of "Animated GIF speed is just insane!!!", sounds like (basically, IE
assumes a 100ms delay if no delay is given, so gifs look "slow" in IE).

After talking to some people, bug 71829 has been filed to request a way for
users to set the default delay Mozilla should use for gifs like this one.
