Curious now - trying another animated .webp file
[
attachment=44784]
so this is what happened....
1st attempt gave me the 'white screen of death'
[
attachment=44785]
So I back-tabbed and tried to re-load the same file... only to get this message
[
attachment=44786]
...and true to the error message there was my file sitting ready to post....which I did!
And it works....
So, if at first you don't succeed.... 😁

..shame really, some are quite good and it seems they are replacing the 'old' .gif in many cases.

MyBB wants the correct file extensions to use the correct procedures without further guessing. I added those parameters to the error string to check what numbers and files type MyBB expects. You see, that webp has number 18 (while IMG_WEBP is 32, so it was not easy to guess what MyBB wants 😁 )
The bottom line:
- The extension must match the file type
- Animated WEBP is not properly supported - see the bug above
Even more, there is a
eady a new standard - WebP2 😁
Hmmm... having a little trouble trying to upload a simple.mp4 file - I'm certain that I've successfully loaded them before but something is going very wrong.
I can select the file and the 'Add Attachment' - but then just get the never ending whirly things of doom!
The file is less than 4Mb (or so it claims) so it shouldn't be the size.
Opens ok on my laptop, so I don't think it's one of those odd files pretending to be one thing when actually another.
twice it's all semi-crashed and posted an empty message (now deleted) and trying it in the test section took so long I dropped the session....
is because I said I didn't care for pink????? 🤔 😁 😁 😁 😁 😁

Mmmm... Can you try again? (I've reset all the caches).
... so it was the stalled cache again ... 😟
