Ok it was downloaded as part of the windows update, and there is a disabled
screen context menu item. So what gives????

MS just a little nudge in the correct direction would be real nice please???

Right click on the desktop, select "Personalize", click "Desktop
Background". Choose a video for the background.

Alternatively, you can right click on any video and select "Set as Desktop
Background".

That listing in the context menu is only to pause or start the animation,
not select which video to play.

Cool. I didn't realize I could use *any* video.

I rather like the supplied one myself. :-)
 
my AND 3200 64 just went to 20% using side bar cpu meter.
not bad at all , no worse then when viewing the same movie using VLC.

I have a AMD 6800 dual core three gigs of RAM and two 6800 GS vid cards and
one core is running over 65% while the other is around 44%
And the preview is choppy at best on both monitors.
 
Using the Beta I found on the web My machine see's NO difference with it on
or off and I only have a Nividia 9700gtx and a AMD 4200x2 running at 2.56
each. And the video I chose is some 18 minutes long ...


This thing kicks I really love IT. the rest of vista is a wait and see.

Makes no difference whether it's on or off on my machine.

What's your graphics hardware? And do you have the latest drivers?
