Well i have 4725 files (Yes, i do <.<) i want to add those all files to the icon state in the DMI (It's a movie state).

Any idea?

What's the state's dimensions? If it's too large, it may not work (as the resulting PNG will be too big to read). Heck, it may not work anyways. Not to mention that the artifacts from the JPG will render the PNG's compression moot, making the file HUGE.

You left out any context, but I'm going to assume you want to show a movie or something. You would be better off turning it into an AVI/MPG or something and just playing it in the browser control.

Anyways, disregarding all common sense, here's how I would do it:

Import all the frames as separate states. Then (if it didn't crash) use something like TweakPNG to rewrite the DMI comments to treat the individual states as one movie state. I'm 95% sure that would work.
