Vlad.

search it! there is a thread for just this. you'll have to modified the config file. The more homescreens the slower your N900 will be and more battery usage.

Version 0.7.1 felt a bit buggy on my end....
Video file had glitches and sometimes it would not start at all...

Can it be possible to show the video as a still when it is not on loop?
Now it just shows a black screen on my end....

What did you alter on the latest update?
I couldn't notice anything....

Jayboy5 2010-08-09 14:17

Re: Live Wallpaper discussion thread
 
Yes, I think it would be nice if the video would pause when you change desktop and resume where you left off when you return. I don't like the black screen when waiting... and it would be real nice to mute it as well.
Also, I can confirm that when you select any wallpaper for all 4 desktops, at least one won't work at all.
Other wise great work, keep it up, thanks.

Not only that but it would save ALOT of battery life.

maxximuscool 2010-08-10 11:42

Re: Live Wallpaper discussion thread
 
i suggest to pause all live wallpaper when program is maximised or when camera app is opened. This would help keep video recording smoothly even its already struggled to get full frame rate without anything running.

This app works great.
Kudos to the developers.

I got some issues with live wallpapers with Desktop activity manager. Please find my review and observations here.

Thank you for your review. Now we are working out the new version 0.8. It will be a bomb ;-) After release this version we will try to fix problem with Desktop Activity Manager.

Hello everybody.

Don't count me as offensive but it's really confusing that there is no possibility to somebody find a solution to run live wallpapers natively. I mean as a wallpaper and not trough specific application.

Heck; even hacked iphone is capable to do that. And somewhere I remember reading that Samsung symbian-devices are also able to do that!

Maemo has so far in my opinion been positive surprise in terms of mod-capabilities. You can do anything with this OS and with N900...
and then you can't hack it to use animated wallpapers... :confused:

Developers of this 'live wallpaper' app had done terrific job and all props to them. Same goes pretty much with all other guys over Maemo community!

That makes me wonder if there really is no solution to hack N900 to run animated wallpapers or is it just that no one has taken it as a priority. I lean to latter.

huh?

what do you mean natively?

please use english, everything on every machine is an app
and these wallpapers run just like everything else

or do you think the silicon itself actually morphs to the wallpaper without being an application?

be very specific in your request and use pictures if you need to clarify something

That was english. Plain and simple.

I mean wallpapers like on (for example) Nexus One.

You don't have to manually start an application on Nexus One when you want to use 'live wallpaper'.

I don't know for sure but I bet that Nexus One don't require much processing power to run live wallpapers. Someone more familiar with this may confirm that. And as I understood this app for N900 discussed in this thread consumes pretty much resources...

Hope I made my point clear?

BTW:
Wouldn't it be possible to analyse method that Android uses and implement it with some modification to Maemo?

You don't need to run Live Wallpapers every time. Just set your backgrounds once and you're done.

Talking about processing power - each wallpaper eats its own ammount. Videos are pretty heavy, Matrix is quite light.
