Anyone know how this works? Windows Dreamscene. I've got the latest update downloaded but I have no idea where to find the actual stuff it downloads or how to activate it.

From what I remember it's in your desktop wallpaper settings, I don't use vista anymore so I can't say for certain but it's easily findable.

Awesome for the link on dreams, I was wondering if there were some out there.

It's pretty neat to play with. I have a 37" monitor hanging on my wall for my computer (1080p) so it looks like a moving photo when I have it idle. Looks beautiful.

How does it work?
Well it runs either an animated file or an mpeg file as your wallpaper, this is nothing new and both vlc and other programs have done this for years Razz

Its not just running a file, its running it with next to no extra resources needed.

Thats the plan anyway, currently its nothing unbelievably special.
