Question

When i tried to load gif to my project suddenly return me error:

Java.Lang.IllegalStateException: ‘Unable to parse composition‘

I want to insert gif to my project I tried to use Lottie and Json File

My code so far

<forms:AnimationView 
    x:Name="animationView" 
    Grid.Row="1"
    Animation="first.json" 
    Loop="false" 
    AutoPlay="false"/>

Accepted Answer

Please add xmlns:lottie="clr-namespace:Lottie.Forms;assembly=Lottie.Forms" to your XAML head and use this component

 <lottie:AnimationView 
                x:Name="AnimationView" 
                Animation="first.json" 
                AutoPlay="True" Loop="true"
                VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand"
                HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand" />

and dont forget to init AnimationViewRenderer.Init(); on MainActivity and AppDelegate

@HristoIvanov the json files must be in Assets for android and Resources for iOS – Guilherme Nimer Nov 4 at 12:37 — Guilherme Nimer, Nov 4 at 12:37

I also encountered the same problem, but I couldn‘t find the AnimationViewRenderer class in my code to initialize it
