Edge animation doesn't work properly or display properly in IE

I've created an animation using Edge CC. It contains a graphic created in illustrator which has a gradient in it. I've inserted it using the OAM method into my webpage in Dreamweaver.

My first issue is that the animation doesn't display in IE10 unless I allow Active X, however it takes forever to load.

If I choose not to load the animation, the Poster image doesn't appear in its place.

The second issue is that once it eventually loads, the gradient doesn't display correctly - it's a solid colour.

Is there a way to get my animation working properly in IE?

And if not, is there code I can use to display an alternative image - something that works in the newer versions of IE? I've tried using <!--[if !IE]> but it doesn't work.


Thanks.
