I'm building an interface for a client using Flash that shows data from remote weather stations. As well as data fields he's asked to have an externally linked animated gif showing a radar weather forecast added to the interface. I tried loading the animated gif into Flash and it will only show the first frame of the animated gif.

After a lot of Googling I haven't found any workarounds to get an external animated gif to work in Flash, so I'm posting here on the off chance that someone has an idea of how I can get this to work.

TIA,
Chris
