Karvastor Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 So lets say, you have a .mov, .avi or whatever, and it's only 5 seconds long. Is there a way that you can loop it and assign it to your background?

iPirate Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 On Mac? Definitely. Get something to run a screensaver as a desktop background (I use Backlight 2.0 designed for PPC macs) and use the SaveHollywood Screen Saver which allows you to select movies to play.

Panik Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 All you people who give one line answers who think you know about MACS {censored} me off so much. I'm looking above at the lot of you. Yes this is a possible. All you have to do is covert the AVI/MOV to a Quartz file therefore making it non-linear and then use a app or terminal command to set the file as your desktop background.

Karvastor Posted August 9, 2008 Author Share Posted August 9, 2008 Thanks guys, just what I wanted to know. All you people who give one line answers who think you know about MACS {censored} me off so much. I'm looking above at the lot of you. Yes this is a possible. All you have to do is covert the AVI/MOV to a Quartz file therefore making it non-linear and then use a app or terminal command to set the file as your desktop background. One more question. Can you recommend me a few programs that let you convert to a Quartz file? I tried looking with google, but I couldn't find anything.
