There is no fundamental difference in terms of effect between video and so-called live wallpapers for the desktop. Both options look equally impressive. The difference between them is purely technical. Video wallpapers exist in the format of video files and are played in a loop, while Live Wallpapers are looping scenarios like screen savers. Live wallpapers are more often represented by computer graphics. And among the video wallpaper, there are both graphics and shots from real life. Both those and others are a luxury that takes away the system resources of the computer and does not carry practical use... Therefore, a prerequisite for their installation is at least the average characteristics of the hardware of a PC or laptop. The second condition for installing video and live wallpapers on the Windows desktop is the use of special software, since the system does not provide for this feature. Such special software is available from the developer Push Entertainment, and we will talk about this software in detail below.

1. Software products by Push Entertainment

On the official website of the developer Push Entertainment, push-entertainment.com, we will find two types of software for installing, respectively, video and live wallpapers. Video wallpaper work in Windows environment provides a small program Push Video Wallpaper, inside of which you can select individual video files for playback on the desktop and create playlists. And live wallpapers provide for the installation of utilities in the system separately for each theme. Push Entertainment software is compatible with Windows 7, 8.1 and 10.

Push Entertainment products are paid (you can check the prices), but you won't have to pay for a pig in a poke. Both the video wallpaper installer and the live wallpaper themes are initially installed in fully functional trial versions, which can be registered for a fee only after thorough testing of the content. We will return to the question of the specifics of trial versions when we consider the installation and configuration of separate video wallpaper and separate live wallpaper.

2. Installing and configuring video wallpaper

To install video wallpaper on your desktop in the download section of the Push Entertainment website, download the Push Video Wallpaper program.

Before completing the installation of the program, if you wish, you can check the "Set as Screensaver" option, and then the assigned video wallpaper will also play the role of a screen saver. However, this moment can be configured at any time later in the Windows screen saver settings.

After the program starts, first of all, open the “Setting” tab to display the program icon in the system tray. It's better to set up right away fast access to the program options. The commands to pause and start video wallpaper playback in the context menu on the program icon in the system tray will come in handy if you need to use the full power of your computer to perform some resource-intensive tasks. Set the active option "System tray icon". Also, the program can be assigned to launch along with the system, this is the option above "Launch at Windows Startup". Without working in background Push Video Wallpaper, of course, will not play video wallpaper.

The main tab of the program "Main" is an interface for managing video wallpaper. The software comes with only one Sample Video. More choice video wallpaper can be obtained on the Internet at a dedicated web resource. Click the download button at the bottom.

Push Video Wallpaper works with WMV video format. So the choice of video wallpapers on the website offered by the program can be expanded - download videos of this format anywhere else or convert another source video format into it.

Add a selection of videos to the playlist of the Push Video Wallpaper program. We press the plus button, select the prepared videos and press "Ad to playlist".

Start and pause video wallpaper, rewind video clips using the buttons at the bottom of the program window. For video with sound, a volume control button is provided. Among other options at the bottom of the window are options for adjusting the image and choosing the speed of video playback. The buttons in the upper right corner of the window are responsible for the periodicity of changing videos, random and cyclic playback of the playlist.

Videos will be added to the default playlist by default, but you can create as many playlists as you want with different selections or single videos. To do this, press the playlist management button, select "New" and set the name of the new playlist.

The choice of a playlist for playback is carried out in the drop-down list of the "Playlist" column.

The creators of Push Video Wallpaper have chosen the tactic of not limiting the user in functionality trial version, but wear it out by periodically pausing video wallpaper playback and throwing a proposal to register a paid version on the screen. And before buying the latter, you will have to constantly press the "Continue Trial" button to continue the trial version.

On the desktop itself, the inscription "Trial Version" will be applied.

3. Installing and configuring live wallpaper

In addition to the Push Video Wallpaper program, all other content in the downloads section of the Push Entertainment website is utilities for setting various themes of live wallpapers in 3D.

During the installation of live wallpapers into the system, the option to install them as a screen saver - "Set as Screensaver" - is pre-installed. It can be removed if desired.

Theme utilities are minimized to the Windows system tray, from where they can be called at any time to customize the playback of live wallpapers.

The utility of each individual live wallpaper theme provides its own individual settings... These can be settings for the speed and direction of movement of objects, color schemes, lighting parameters, etc. The universal options that are present in the utilities of all Push Entertainment live wallpaper themes are only organizational ones - assigning a launch together with Windows, disabling wallpaper playback, registering and paying for a license.

As in the case of video wallpaper, until the moment you pay for each live wallpaper theme, the trial version of its utility will periodically turn off spontaneously. Screen savers with unregistered live wallpaper themes will be accompanied by an inscription stating that the trial version is being used.

Have a great day!

As many probably remember in some Windows versions Vista had such a spectacular feature called Dreamscene. It allows you to set videos in .wmv or .mpeg format as the desktop wallpaper.

In Windows 7, a wallpaper slideshow appeared instead. However, Dreamscene did not disappear anywhere, but was simply deactivated and hidden in the bowels of the system. In order to make it possible to use, you can use a tiny utility Windows 7 DreamScene Activator .

After downloading and unpacking the archive, you must run the file with administrator rights (right click - Run as administrator). Then you need to press the button Enable DreamScene.

Now a new item will appear in the context menu of video files Set as Desktop Background with which it can be set as the desktop wallpaper.

Now all that remains is to visit the site http://www.dreamscene.org and choose a suitable video for your desktop, and there is definitely something to choose from - several hundred selected scenes are sorted into categories. However, there are enough other places on the net for downloading suitable videos - google it.

All this splendor has only a small drawback - the labels of icons and folders on the Desktop become translucent and therefore difficult to read. But this is easy to fix. We go into the properties of the desktop ( Personalization - Desktop Background - Solid Colors) and choose white. That's it - the inscriptions became visible again.

Anticipating the groaning of some ascetics, I would like to note in conclusion that, of course, Dreamscene does not bring any benefit, but only consumes system resources. But on the other hand, if the performance of the processor is constantly growing every year, then why not keep it busy? :) Moreover, when a full-screen window is open, the video is paused and system resources are not consumed.
