this  

yad --image "/home/david/images/helloThere.gif"
shows a still picture instead of a moving gif, but this

yad --image "/home/david/images/helloThere.mp4"
shows just the Yad icon


Or maybe yad can make a frame for something like mplayer to play something?

Just wondering, not super important,

Thank you Victor,

I'm just working on an explanatory screencast about a script I'm working on, and there's a section talking about Yad itself and I wanted to show a few example one-liners to show off the simplicity of how Yad can be useful.  That was going to be the second one after yad --text="hello there".  If I ever get it finished I'll post it here (Yad front end for mplayer).

yad --text="hello there"
yad --picture --filename="/home/david/images/helloThere.gif" --width 650 --height 320
yad --list --tree --column "Items" f Fruits 1:f Apple 2:f  Lemon v Vegetables 3:v Potato 4:v Onion --geometry 200x200
yad --list  --checklist  --column  "Buy" --column  "Item"  TRUE Apples TRUE Oranges FALSE Pears FALSE Toothpaste --geometry 200x200
