GIFs stop looping after 5 min


Is there a way to have GIFs loop indefinitely when they are not in focus?

I noticed that when GIF’s are playing, if they are not actively being focused on, they will stop playing at around 5 min. This is troublesome for me since I will preload all the GIFs before a presentation to make sure they are playing, but by the time I get to the later ones, they have already stopped playing.

So I was wondering if there was a workaround for this since this would make Miro non usable for my presentation. Thanks.

Was it helpful?

Hi @krimson0.

There’s a wish list suggestion to add an on/off button to autoplay all GIFs on a board submitted by @Emma Stark a year ago. It currently has 59 votes. Check it out and give it an upvote!

Thanks for the heads up, sounds like a great feature. I upvoted it!

However still hoping that there is a maybe a trick or setting to change that I can solve the issue I have sooner.
