Summary
Desktop Live Wallpaper+: Video Wallpaper is a live wallpaper app that turns a Windows 10/11 desktop background into a rotating timeline of personal photos and videos. It plays media selected from the user's own hard drive, supporting animated GIFs, various video formats such as MP4, MOV, WMV and AVI, and photo formats including JPG, PNG and BMP. Users control the order of items in the timeline, the display duration of each photo and the sound settings for videos. The app also supports dual-screen setups, with an AI-based mode that projects media either expanded across both monitors or repeated on each. The app is free to use and includes ads displayed within the menu.

Desktop Live Wallpaper+ turns your own videos, photos and animated GIFs into a live wallpaper for Windows 11 and Windows 10. Your media plays behind your desktop icons, one after the other, joined by cinematic transitions like the ones a video editor makes – and your icons and windows stay exactly where they are.
CINEMATIC TRANSITIONS
Between every two items the app plays a real video transition, not a hard cut: circle reveals, radial wipes, slides, pixel dissolves, zooms, blurs and fades, combined with slow pan and zoom movement. Each pair of items gets its own transition, made on your PC with FFmpeg, so your wallpaper flows like a short film.
TWO WAYS TO CONTROL IT
Use the app's own window, or open the same controls in your web browser on this PC. Both show the same Timeline and settings, and every change is saved right away. A small start window near the taskbar lets you pick either one.
ADD FILES WITH A RIGHT-CLICK
Select one or many videos or photos in File Explorer, right-click and choose "Add to Desktop Live Wallpaper+". They join your Timeline instantly – no need to open the app first.
A TIMELINE YOU CONTROL
• Add videos (MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, AVI, WMV and more), photos (JPG, PNG, BMP) and GIFs
• Drag cards to change the order; click any card to play it now
• Choose how long each photo stays on screen, from 4 seconds to 2 minutes
• A live preview shows what's on your desktop, with the time left
NO MORE STRETCHED PICTURES
Pick Fill, Fit or Stretch for pictures that don't have your screen's shape. With Frame you choose exactly which part of a tall photo or a wide video fills your desktop.
ONE SCREEN OR TWO
Play the wallpaper on the screen you choose, or on two monitors: repeat the same media on both, expand it across them, or let AI mode pick the best way for each item.
