Thanks Peter,

This is the correct behavior.

The first frame has the index number #0.
So, if you have only one frame, you'll receive a ZERO in GetFrameCount()

Changing this line will make it easier to work with.

this.nFrames = this.oMultif.GetFrameCount() + 1

Before you say. I agree it's really strange to receive the ZERO value when you have one frame, but that's how GdiPlus.dll works, and the .NET samples work too.

Here you can have more samples using TIFFs:
