I only quoted the sentence I was replying to. To assume I didn't read the rest of your message is, frankly, insulting. The exception you were talking about ("short looping video with horrible compression") is precisely the thing that both GIF and APNG aren't supposed to do well. Both GIF and APNG support: - palettes - transparency - different delay per frame - combine/replace disposal mode per frame Generic video formats don't generally support these.
