Hey @Heather_Dudley,
I added a new site setting to allow you to force the component to use the GIF format instead of webp.
Just be aware that it uses more than double the disk space / network bandwidth while having less quality.
This gif here:
GIF: 3.5MB
WEBP: 1.4MB
MP4: 1MB
AVIF: 276.8 KB
For everyone else I added autofocus on the search modal!
