minus-squareMonkderVierte@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-220 hours ago that WebM doesn’t support looping Isn’t that a player issue? Edit: i assume there is a metadata flag, in formats that support it? Or is it something different?
minus-squareRiskable@programming.devlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-213 hours agoNo, actually! There’s no metadata option in .WebM to tell it to loop! It’s not in the spec (which is just a subset of matroska). The format literally does not support looping. Whereas the .WebP spec does provide a looping option: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9649/ It’s in the ANIM chunk which specifies the “loop count”. If it’s zero, loop forever. WebM has no built-in loop flag 🤷
