animated background problem

Hello developers and supporters of Kodi

First, I would like to thank you all for your amazing work and keeping it open source for people to unfold their creativity. I needed a project and found Kodi Smile

I was happy to read Kodi now supports animated GIF backgrounds and tested out a few common available pieces.
They ran smooth on my RP2 so I spent the last 14 days creating a 300 layer 882kb 1920×1080 animation.
It takes up almost no ressources but it seems Kodi is only reading the first 5-10 frames and then it restarts.

Any way to solve this problem or did I expect too much?
