With image.animation_mode already set to Normal, most animated gif (if not all) are found to be not moving

There's no problem in loading the image but it seems to be limited to the first frame.

It happens even with downloading the gif, only the first frame is downloaded so the image is also not animated.

Is there another core setting in firefox affecting this? I have tried disabled extensions and addons, but the problem persist. It won't happen with a brand new profile.

Thanks, I found that it's from the proxy software. I unintentionally froze the animatinos.

Do you see the animation if you check the image in Tools > Page Info > Media or open the image directly in a tab?

Some security software (firewall) can block animated images and send a normal image instead, so can try to check the advanced settings for Firefox in the firewall if the problem isn't in Firefox.

I'm having the same issue. Some gif's animate, others don't. How do I find the firewall setting for FF? I checked the advanced tab and didn't see it. I'm also very confused about proxy servers. How do I fix those and where do I find them?

I already did the about:config. Everything is set correctly there. I don't use any of the firewall programs in the article you listed. I use Avast and SAS.

I checked and they are all set to exclude gif's.

I don't know what else to do.

I am using proxomitron and I checked the freeze animation in the settings. But I think it's a software not used by many people. Anyway I hope this may shed some light on your problem.
