Animation Playback in WPF - Supported Image Format?

Question

I want to include animation in my Windows WPF / C # application, this is a loading animation (but more complicated than just a spinner).

I initially thought that I would use GIFs, I thought there would be some built-in support for playing them, but obviously not .

Does WPF support native support for any animation format?

Or do I just need to go with the method in the link above?

My animation includes transparency and various opacity options.

I myself made an animation to convert it to any format.

I used this simple library in my recent WPF project. Take a look. It may be useful for you.
