I'm not familiar with mplayer and the tons of option seem like a jungle to me, when all I want to do is show an endless looped gif animation at full screen on my RPi running raspbian.

Can anyone help me, please?

I am now working in Windows and using 

mplayer -fs –mf fps=1:type=jpeg *.jpg mf://*.jpg  –vo direct3d, -ao dsound-sub-fuzziness 1 -loop 100

to play jpg file in mplayer in fullscreen mode. I did't test on linux but i think 

mplayer -fs –mf fps=1:type=gif *.gif mf://*.jpg  -ao dsound-sub-fuzziness 1 -loop 100

should work for you too.

I video DJ using the RPi. Making mplayer full-screen is often harder than it should be. The switch to make mplayer full-screen is -fs. The problem is that many video outputs (-vo) do not support full-screen. If the -vo does not support -fs, I often get around this by using the RCA connection instead of the HDMI on a screen that does not display the entire frame. Try mplayer -fs file.gif and report back. Which -vo are you using?
