Images are passed through the GD image methods by default (imagegif() in your case) and this seem to remove animations. You could try Imagick instead, maybe it keeps the animations. Add this to your ./config/shop.php file in the "controller" section:
Code: Select all
'common' => ['media' => ['standard' => ['options' => ['image' => ['name' => 'Imagick', 'quality' => 100]]]]]

You don't have the php-imagick extension installed

Can you please execute
Code: Select all
composer require aimeos/aimeos-core:2018.10.x-dev
and try again? If you don't have maxwidth and maxheight for images set, they will be now unchanged.

I'm running Aimeos in a Docker environment with ImageMagick installed, have set the controller to Imagick, and have cleared the max image sizes in
https://github.com/aimeos/aimeos-larave ... t.php#L271
Still I'm having no luck in saving gifs while maintaining the animation, it keeps only saving the first frame. Is there anything I might have missed, or if all else fails, is there a way to upload mp4s instead of an image to the product?

Maybe Imagick simply doesn't support animations when saving GIF files. If no max width/height is given, the file isn't scaled but only read and written again.
You can upload videos in the "Image" tab of the admin interface too as well as all other files. In the 2019.x releases, the tab has been renamed to "Media".

Thank you! I feel a bit stupid that I did not just try that but it's working perfect now.
