But ... how to make a sif file ???

.sif is the native produced Synfig vector animation file. Inkspace can produce no animated sif file (Since 0.49 nativly, before the Sif Exporter done by Nikitakit did it)

Demo/Test v0.21 (based on sifPlayer) page for SifPlayer (by haramanai).

This page is sifplayer 0.21 poweredby commit E4498022f9,
Last update of this page 18.04.13

LastNews : converted@99,5% - ogg for all but plane + why plane don't load? + play/pause little improvement (but cpu up!) + can we avoid canvas resize glitch?
LastNews171212 : All anim are unloaded && all ogg are paused by default

Tips: Depends on http server configuration, you will need to rename youre sif source file (.sif) to xml file type (.xml) to 'bypass' http server restrictions.

TODO / js mk it nicer / document buttons particular usage / infos on cpu usage / report [+] [-] on git !!!!

Since en years, Synfig (and is his history) , just did some incredible stuff ...

Synfig was @ Lgm13
