#Reddit animated wallpapers 1080p#
The video I'm using is 1080p and uses about 5% of my total CPU. This depends on the quality of the video and what you see as 'a lot'. Right click it and click on 'create shortcut'.ĭoes this take a lot of processing power? Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC and search for vlc.exe. If anyone could help me out on this one, that would be great.Īfter VLC installed, I deleted the desktop shortcut, but it turns out I need it! Where can I find it?
#Reddit animated wallpapers how to#
Well, I have absolutely no idea how to fix that one. I have multiple monitors and it splits the video over all of them! VLC has a bit of trouble gaining access to certain paths. When opening the shortcut it says the file can't be descripted, what do I do?Ĭut and paste the file to somewhere else, then edit the shortcut accordingly. VLC: very useful and fast program, this is what we will be using. Video wallpaper: Kinda buggy, but also supports screensaver if you want that.
Videoboss: Found in an obscure place on the internet, while working very good it automatically jumps into focus whenever you close something, which was kind of annoying. On r/Videopaper there are many people saying it's buggy as well. Even after I specially upgraded to Windows 10, I couldn't get it to work. Videopaper: This one was also referenced a lot, but it didn't seem to work for me. Some might like this, but it's not what I was looking for. However, they offer a mere 30-day trial after which you have to pay.Īnimapaper: Whilst very praised in r/LivingBackgrounds, it turned out that it's just a program that displays a video, which you can alt-tab out of. Also note that this doesn't require rainmeter, but since it makes your desktop fancy and all I guess there will be some interested.įor the sake of completeness, I will list some of the programs I have tried:ĭeskscapes/Dreamscene/some others: These seem free, and 90% of the time this will be what you find when looking for tutorials. Note that I'm by far not an expert on this topic, so if you see any mistakes/errors feel free to correct me.
In this tutorial I will try to explain you how to do this so others don't have to waste as much time on this as I did. After a long time of searching, I finally succeeded.
Some programs that did this costed money, others were buggy, and so on. However, when looking into the subject, I found that there were very few options. Last week I wanted to have a 'live' wallpaper on my desktop ( like this), since a bit of movement always makes it more attractive. (If you're just here for the tutorial skip to Step one)
