Animated .gif in Android

I've been following this tutorial:

http://droid-blog.net/2011/10/15/tutorial-how-to-play-animated-gifs-in-android-%E2%80%93-part-2/

It explains how to add an animated .gif to an Activity. But it doesn't explain how to add the .gif to an existing ImageView within an Activity. Is there an easy way to pull this off?

In android Native API, ImageView does not support animated image or .GIF file. The alternate way to show animated image are follows:

  1. Use VideoView
  2. Use ImageView and Split the gif file into several parts and then apply animation to it
