Animated GIF Loads for HTML Output - Not PPTX

[engineerjoe440]

I was playing around, trying to add an animated GIF to my markdown so that it could be embedded to help illustrate concepts for my generated slide-deck. Loading the GIF from a web resource, I was able to perform the load appropriately for the HTML slide-deck, but if I were to try to generate a PowerPoint presentation, the image did not load.

For fun, I tried loading the GIF as a local file and using the --allow-local-files flag in the command, and although I was able to load a static shot of the image, the animation did not load correctly. Am I missing something, or do you have any thoughts on how embedding an animated GIF in a PPTX might be possible?

I understand that this may be a bit challenging to load into the PPTX, but if there's any possible way, I think this has great value! What do you think?

PPTX conversion is the feature in Marp CLI, not in Marpit framework. Translated issue from Marpit ▶️ Marp CLI.

...and it's duplicated with #196. Refer to #196 and #166 (comment) for why cannot play GIF in PPTX.

Honestly it's like a re-invintention of browser, and not realistic within the scope of Marp project.
