Hub75 and video signal
Anyway I used this library on a Raspberry Pi Zero https://github.com/hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix I only displayed static images but the "image-example" shows how to handle animated gifs.

Finished Protogen Head
Adafruit makes a hat that you can plug right onto the GPIO port. I'm using rpi-rgb-led-matrix, I also have a guide you can watch on YT here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssyTWpVEl0E

Please help. I just acquired this P10 led board and I want to be able to use it for myself but the WF2 card is locked. Is there a way I can reset it or use something else entirely?
Use a rgb matrix hat, a raspberry pi, and this library.

How to run a function from a main loop, leave that function running and go back to main loop
To control the matrix, a loop is ran and inside things are displayed to the matrix. (I'm using this library https://github.com/hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix)

How can I play mp4 video using this Matrix LED Panel (video inside)
I found this https://github.com/hzeller/rpi-rgb-led-matrix, this provides python scripts. Please read through them, and then ask specific questions at each step. If python just looks like gobldegock, I suggest you go through some basic python tutorials docs.python.org has a tutorial page, and no you don't have to complete the whole think just read everything about built-ins and basic syntax (for, if, def, else, etc).

BeagleBoard Announces BeagleV-Fire with RISC-V and FPGA
DE10-Nano used to be ~$100 2 years ago before FPGA vendors decided to stop manufacturing while bumping prices.
$30 is a good price for FPGA dev board, requires a little creativity https://github.com/q3k/chubby75/tree/master

Interfacing FPGA with Ethernet PHY over RGMII
I am now trying to make use of the on-board Ethernet PHYs, which on my revision of the board are Realtek RTL8211FD chips. More details on the board V8.0 revision here. And the Realtek datasheet is here.

Driving large RGB LED matrices
Rather than designing your own PCB, I suggest that you use a ColorLight 5A-75 LED driver board. These are commercial boards that are designed to drive LED panels. They contains Lattice ECP5 FPGAs and have been completely reverse engineered for hobby use. They are very cheap, around $20 on AliExpress.
