I'm curious if anyone is noticed the flickering Loading icon when the .mp4 version loops? It only shows up for 50 ms, but seems kind of annoying. Or maybe it's just my machine?

I saw it too. The odd thing is that 4chan's equivalent doesn't show any such loading indicator. Also, looping a video in HTML5 doesn't require Javascript.


I saw it everytime the video looped. Left a distinct impression with me that the real GIF version is better.


Yeah, I see it too. Very annoying.


Also annoying to have to allow javascript to see what is supposed to be an image.


I noticed it once, and then I kept watching and couldn't see it again so I thought I was just imagining it.


Weird, could be the way that embedly embeds the video. I don't see the same thing with gfycat.


If you right-click on that, is it a Flash player? Are you on Firefox?


Nope, it's an HTML video element. I'm on Chrome 35.
