Depending on the animation you intend to use, it might not work well
as using software rendering is slow. It'd need to have the GPU backend
support to work fine.

At O.S. Systems we developed a boot splash solution which we provide
for our customers that uses the same format for animation of Android.
For this, we added support for the Vivante EGL and G2D backends as
well as Etnaviv.
