i remade DaveMcW's 8-year-old build and created an online gif-to-screen blueprint generator.
..

Awesome stuff, and the gif to blueprint generator is amazing work. I do have to ask, simply because I am completely new to all this stuff, how do you activate the video? I've pasted and built the blueprint generated by your site, but It's stuck on a single frame. I haven't a clue what to do next, so I'm hoping my question isn't too dumb. Thanks in advance.

thanks!

to do this, there is a red combinator at the bottom. but usually, it should be activated immediately. there may be a problem with the file..
is the animation visible on the site itself?

Yep, the animation shows up on the website. I will mess around and see what I can do

Ok, for whatever reason, the constant combinator that's supposed to make the things run don't have the proper signals coming out of it when you need them to. The "On" option doesn't output green to start it up. I put in the green and then it started working, so case closed!

I tried to use it, copied blueprint and it was made only out of lamps and nothing else (unpowered, no color, so no image...). I am missing something?

yeah, you have to select the “tight video player” method in the third box
