-<P>MPlayer currently does not support seeking in GIF files.  GIF files do
-  not necessarily have a fixed frame size, nor a fixed framerate.  Rather,

-  certain place on a field of fixed-size.  The framerate is controlled by
-  an optional block before each frame that specifies a next frame's delay
