Setting a Video as Wallpaper on Windows 10
To set a video as wallpaper on your Windows 10 desktop, you will need to follow the steps outlined below:
1. Install VLC Media Player
The first step is to install the VLC media player. VLC is a free and open-source media player that is compatible with most video and audio formats. If you don’t have VLC already installed on your computer, you can download it from the official website.
2. Choose your video
Select the video that you want to use as your wallpaper. Make sure that it is in a format that VLC recognizes, such as MP4 or AVI.
3. Open VLC and choose your video
Open VLC and choose the media tab. From here, click on the “Open File” option and browse for the video that you want to use as wallpaper.
4. Settings
Next, click on the “Tools” option from the menu bar and choose “Preferences.” In the preferences panel, click on “Video” and then select “DirectX video output.”
5. Adjust your video settings
You’ll have to configure a few settings for optimum performance. Check the “Enable Wallpaper Mode” option; this will ensure that your video remains playing even when you minimize all other windows. Then, click “Save” to apply the changes.
6. Set as Wallpaper
Finally, go to the video player menu bar, right-click, and click on “Video”. This will open a drop-down menu, in which you can select “Set as Wallpaper.” The video will then be set as your new wallpaper.

1. Install Video Live Wallpaper
The first step is to install Video Live Wallpaper on your Android device. This app supports various video formats, including MP4 and 3GP.
2. Choose your video
Select the video that you want to use as your wallpaper. Make sure that it is in a format that Video Live Wallpaper recognizes.
3. Open Video Live Wallpaper
Open Video Live Wallpaper and select the video that you want to set as your wallpaper. You’ll be given the option to trim the video if you want to use only a specific portion of it, or you can choose to use the entire video as your wallpaper.
4. Adjust your video settings
Once you have selected the video that you want to use as your wallpaper, you will be able to adjust its settings. For instance, you can choose to mute the audio of the video or set the video to repeat. Once you have adjusted the settings to your preference, click on “Set Live Wallpaper.”
Conclusion
Setting a video as wallpaper is a fun way to personalize your desktop or Android device. With the steps outlined above, we hope that you’ll be able to do so with ease.
