I should know how to do it by now, but SOMETIME (not always)
I am still running into an error message:

with a:
pdftex.def
error.
I do not see the
required converters listed in the preferences/converters.
Sadly, because I
am using MX Linux (don't ask me why), I am using Texlive
2018, which tlmgr refuses to update. ImageMagick in
installed and working, but obviously something else is
broken.
Any hints?
Thanks,

LyX on my system (Mint) does not have a converter defined for
GIFs, maybe because the GIF format is so 20th century? :-) At any
rate, I'm pretty sure ImageMagick can convert GIF to JPG or PNG or
maybe EPS. I suggest try to convert one of the files using
ImageMagick, and if it works, just define a GIF converter using
ImageMagick in LyX.

Indeed, converting GIF to JPG works, so I can live with that.
However, I am also very 20th Century, and I have not quite expired
yet, despite the efforts of Sars-2 et al...
