It does not seem to be related to multidex. Could you paste XML framgent with GifImageView?

[saikat1529]

Thanks for your reply. Please follow my xml layout below

<ImageView
    android:layout_width="250dp"
    android:layout_height="250dp"
    android:src="@drawable/logo_with_border"
    android:scaleType="fitXY"
    android:layout_gravity="center" />

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:text="IUCF"
    android:textSize="@dimen/btn_font_size"
    android:textAppearance="@style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Body2"
    android:padding="10dp"/>

<TextView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center"
    android:text="Inter University Cultural Festival"
    android:textSize="@dimen/font_size"
    android:paddingLeft="20dp"
    android:paddingRight="20dp"/>


<pl.droidsonroids.gif.GifImageView
    android:id="@+id/loader_image"
    android:layout_width="30dp"
    android:layout_height="30dp"
    android:src="@drawable/loader"
    android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
   android:layout_gravity="center"
    />

In my drawable folder i have loader.gif file with 120x120 size downloaded from loading.io website.

It looks very odd. Could you try creating drawable with GifDrawable#createFromResource and set it in ImageView instead of android:src?

[saikat1529]

Hi,
Thanks for your response. But i found out the problem. When i added the gif file inside my drawable accidentally it was only copied to folder drawable-v21 and as my device was in api level 19, hence the file was missing for that version. Which was causing error on the time of inflate layout. Sorry for inconvenience.

[koral--]

No problem.

[techview51]

Same issue: Solved.
My image files were in the "drawable-v24" folder. I copied them to the "drawable" folder too. Problem solved.

I think casued problem , (android:scaleType="fitXY") or (android:textAppearance="@style/Base.TextAppearance.AppCompat.Body2")
