Hi.
I work with a 4.0.0 ez version.
I need to insert an animated gif into homepage but it doesn't work. When I publish it I see only the first frame.
I searched through ini settings but it seems that animated gif is activated.
How can I do do start the slides?
Is it some ez image conversion?
Thank you in advance.

Christian

Hi,
you say that :

How can I know what is the problem?
Or if Imagemagick is installed? 

if you want to know if you have the imagemagick installed on your computer.
open the file

image.ini.append.php

located in .../settings/override/ and look theses lines:

[ImageMagick]
IsEnabled=true
ExecutablePath=c:\program files\imagemagick-6.4.4-q16    {* path to imagemagick *}
Executable=convert.exe

for example.
good luck,

If the practice and theory are met, nothing works and we do not know why.

Now I installed Imagemagick on server.
There something I must do/change into ini settings to active it?

AAAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHH!!!!!!

Something gone wrong.
It's very strange.

I uploaded IM and clear the cache.
Now the animated gif works correctly.

The problem is that Internet Explorer don't visualize some images.

And all works with Firefox.
Someone have any idea?

I tried disabling ImageMagick and all works.
Reactivating it some images disappear but only with IE.
Do you know about settings of ez on imagemagick?
