Solution

  • Create custom Toolbar layout like this. And put your gif, title etc here.

    <android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:id="@+id/toolbar"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="?attr/actionBarSize"
    android:minHeight="?attr/actionBarSize"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme.AppBarOverlay"
    app:popupTheme="@style/AppTheme.PopupOverlay">

    <RelativeLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent">

        <pl.droidsonroids.gif.GifImageView
           android:layout_width="match_parent"
           android:layout_height="match_parent"
           android:src="@drawable/src_anim"
           android:background="@drawable/bg_anim"/>

        //Other views

    </RelativeLayout>

</android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar>
