It requires changes on both sides. I've already implemented it on both sides (it was fairly trivial), but as I've said I have no way to update the channel or anything on github. I don't know if you've tried to create the BIF files. They're a little bit of a pain to create, but I have a usable method and I believe someone posted a method somewhere in the forum as well. I believe it was for Windows, so you may want to start investigating creating them from Ubuntu. ffmpeg can be used to create the JPEGs, but the Windows version at least requires one JPEG to be dropped and the indices to be renumbered starting from 0.
