What would be the best way to show a large animated gif fullscreen?

What would be the best way to show a large animated gif fullscreen? by large I mean 1920*1080. Android TV doesn’t support live wallpapers so I came up with 2 workarounds. #1. is a shortcut with a gif as the icon but even if I make the shortcut full screen I still have to scale the icon up a lot which obviously is a bad idea and causes performance issues lol the other workaround was to use a custom view containing a webview and just resize it to fill the screen and have that load the file I haven’t tried this yet because i’m not near the TV but I think it will work great just not sure about performance if anyone has any other ideas let me know.

I am a member of several G+ communities, where LOTS of technical ‘how to’ information is shared. It is frustrating to see so many of the same questions, asked and answered, over and over.

This is generally attributed to people being too ‘lazy’ to look for the answer, before asking the question.

In some cases, the issue is not one of laziness. Rather, since Google has removed the search feature (again) from G+ mobile interface, there IS no way to search communities, without using a PC (or maybe forcing the desktop site, via mobile).

I am asking all who are willing, to email apps-help@google.com and request Google reintroduce search on G+ mobile.

The more requests they receive, the better the chance they’ll actually do it.

Feel free to share this post. Help reach more users. Help ensure apps-help@google.com understands that mobile search really IS IMPORTANT.

Thank you.

Anyone know how to bring up this menu through script.My TV tells me the actions not available when I try to do it by the add item/shortcut dialog I can bring it up through Tasker with run a lightning Action problem is it needs me to pick an action for the task so if I set this to a task shortcut on my homescreen it will only run the action I specified instead of bringing up the list of actions. I think if tasker can bring up the list a script should be able to do it azwell.

Request: Has anyone built LL “app drawer” folder that has the same features as Nougat/Marshmallow (alphabets on left-hand side, most often used on the top)?

of all the features and customization capabilities of LL, have always thought the app drawer view was the least user-friendly and most restrictive (in terms of what can / cannot be modified) …

This has been the case ever since I started using Lightning Launcher, but I keep forgetting to ask about it.

Is there anyone using my Scriptlib? If so, Version 2.0-beta1 is out. It would be great if you could test it.

Is there anyone using my Scriptlib? If so, Version 2.0-beta1 is out. It would be great if you could test it.

I’ve reworked the API completely for higher performance.

All calls are now syncronous, which means: No need for listeners anymore. This also means that these methods can block the thread and in turn shouldn’t be called on the UI thread.

Here is how it works: You create a new ScriptManager. Then you call bind(). Then you do whatever you want to do. If you are finished or the application exits, you should call unbind().

Sidenote: This will not work with very old Repository Importer versions, just keep your apps up-to-date 🙂
