Default How to choose whén gif starts animating in Slide Show

Good day!

What we have:
A slide with several gif animations.

What we want to do:
Have the gifs appear one by one on click and see their animation.

What happens:
Apparently as soon as the slide starts in Slide Show View all the gifs start animating, even when they are not visible yet. So by the time we click to have them appear, they have already reached their gif end point.

"Why not put the gifs on different slides so that click takes you to the next slide where the next gif starts to play?"
Because in the middle of the slide there is 1 video on loop. Even if we would move that video to the slide master it would re-start on every slide instead of continuing to play.
We also tried to have the looping video playing over multiple slides, but then it stops looping.

"Why not loop the gifs so that they are still animating when they appear?"
We only want to see the animation once, it cannot loop.

Thank you in advance for your answers!
Kind regards,
Judith
