live wall papers was crippling my phone! That was with just one background, the stock Matrix one.

I had to remove it.

Anyone else had any issues?

I'm running 7 desktops

I found some more PS3 XMB videos on the below forum, they are high quality 720p, but the only problem is they are 200mb! unfortunately i dont have any software to edit these videos but thought they might be of some use to anyone who wants them but in different colours.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

Also when i tried the blue XMB theme, it played a bit 'choppy' on my phone, is this the same for anyone else? my phone is completely stock and not overclocked...

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

can someone convert this?its really great and we need some nudity.
i would be very happy.
thanks

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

Hm, I got an idea, not sure if its doable though.

Would it be possible to make a Plasma Lamp wallpaper, and when you touch the screen, it will follow your finger. Like a real life plasma lamp.

Like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SMxGU...eature=related

That would be really neat!

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

Can anybody tell me how to use these nice video's as a fullscreen background? I've downloaded some and they are all in a 4:3 aspect ratio.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

hwkok I have the same problem

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

Perhaps this thread might help solve your aspect ratio problems.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

im fixing the ones i uploaded now, links will be active in about an hour

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

Thanx, but I really couldn't get this to work, because of my n00b-ness with Xterminal. Don't understand what this code will do.

@ leetut: are the links updated?
And do you have a new link for the PS3-style background avi. When I click it, it says: resource not found.

Thnx :)

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

you can di this via live wallpaper, you just have to go into the settings and figure it out.
it is not hard to do, you just need to set one wallpaper. the only thing i noticed was it overlays the actual wallpaper, i dont know if this will affect your performance.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

yes they were updated an hour after i said they would be
and no i only updated the ones i originally uploaded

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

I have been waiting for an update version of LiveWallpaper since I have problems with the current version on my videos. Is an update coming soon or is it possible to get hold of an earlier version like the one prior to v.0.92? Thanks.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

i have no probs with latest ver of LW using videos, it depends on the encoding used

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

can anybody point me towards a tuto for converting dreamscape backgrounds into livewallpapers?? do i just change the aspect ratios?

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

What encoding should I use for the videos and what is the best bite rate and frame rate should be used for best result?

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

anyboby have the nexus one video ? and loopable

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

i just tried some of the wallpapers.

florish seems to run fine fps-wise, though you can see the compression.
i also tried goldparticles and snow - both ran with literally 1 frame per second.

all 3 of them took nonstop 95-100% CPU.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

Sorry guys, can anyone tell me where I can get hold of an earlier version of LiveWallpaper 'ver. 0.92' or prior, thanks.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

my version shows as 1.0.3, when i select video optio in tyene and one of these avi files it doesn't show up in the desktop.... it comes out as normal wallpaper..... pls help

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

havent tried these yet but the nokia splash thing moving from right to left would be so tits! i mean the default maemo bground

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

guys plzzz help me... every video that I've downloaded and tried on my n900, it doesnt plays well in the background... using the live wallpaper theme, when I apply any video to b played, the video plays frame by frame... like a photo slideshow... man it sucks... plzz help me with.. I dont have much on my desktop

I am even not able to see any of my pictures slideshow... no pictures show up when using slideshow template... help me with this plzz... its a bug I guess


EDIT
This thing is happening to me with AVI videos.. i played a clouds MP4 video and it worked well... so plzzz help me with this guys... plzzzz
but the mp4 thing jst worked once... now its also showing the same sucking behaviour...

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

What size are the avi files you are trying to play - and by size I mean resolution. If they are larger than the screen then yeah it might be laggy.

Previous thread answers simply suggest using mp4 for all the files you need.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

actually a few avi files are working, namely : idream, dyingplanet, florish, dripping....
but the rest avi's namely : sky, rain, snow, star flare, rockies, ae particles.... r not working proerply... I have downloaded all these from this thread only... from the mediafire links provided... but I am not sure how to match up their resolution to work...

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

I have made this simple video for Live Wallpaper. It shows a hypothetical magnetic monopole particle in a grand unified theory, and is produced by an actual quantum field theory simulation. The framerate is quite low so that it does not use too much CPU time.

It is probably some codec issue but I had to add some extra frames at the end to make to loop smoothly on Live Wallpaper.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

fireplace.mp4 is the smoothest video and works fine, the rest aren't that smooth even when i choose "smoother", leetut have you tried any of your videos ?

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

For te ones that likes the android Nexus One/S Live wallpaper, here it is in SWF Format (attached file as zip, extract it for the swf)

Have fun :)

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

thanks for that mate, but i'm guessing its going to kill the battery with high cpu usage, right ???

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

I cant make the videos look at full screen, i use the 4:3 and 16:9 aspect but just the 16:9 has black edges in the screen, not full screen, and the 4:3 worst, i haver pr 1.3, maybe a multimedia codec is the problem.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

Could someone reupload fireplace video? Link doesn't work anymore.
Thanks.

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

i have found a way for smooth video without overclock and will start a new thread for it with new encoding settings and a few good video sample tomorrow bare with me guys!!!!!!

Re: [Live Wallpaper] Video Wallpapers
 

after a long time for not using this app because of power draining issues, i decide to reuse it back again with one paper for all desktops, video playing in loop (which should only be active when in desktop). The i found which i did not have back then is that the movie is being played only once or twice and then stops. anyone has this behavior/knows how to overcome this?

Also, when trying to browse for videos from the livewallpaper settings, the file browser opens and crashes immediately - i am only able to change video file using these:

gconftool-2 -s /apps/maemo/livewp/additional_string_11 -t string "/media/mmc1/Media/Motion Picture/Background/egretsunset.avi"

The flash playing isn't working also - the screen is staying black.

uninstalling live-wallpaper and reinstalling doesn't fix these issues.

i am using - 2011.38-1Tmaemo8.2+thumb1 and 2.6.28.10-power52
