How to use gif as SplashScreen?

@ranjan-ranjan You should show a custom window with media element to show the gif.

Hi, is there a way to play a GIF on native SplashScreen? Native SplashScreen appears on the screen faster than a custom Window.

protected override async void OnStartup(StartupEventArgs e)
{
 SplashScreen splashScreen = new(@"Assets\splash.gif");
 splashScreen.Show(true, true);
}

@fatihyildizhan Sorry, it can not display the gif image

This is a solution, thanks for sharing. But, I have to run on "OnStartup" event.

App launch takes too much time. That's why I want to show on "OnStartup". Otherwise, users think that app doesn't start.
