Video Wallpapers for all Vista Editions

Dreamscene is one of those few applications that are exclusive to Windows Vista Ultimate users giving them the opportunity to use Video Wallpapers as the desktop background. Workarounds to enable Dreamscene on other Vista editions have been circulating the Internet for a while. This is however not wanted by Microsoft and only possible by using cracked versions of Dreamscene.

Enter SSDream. SSDream is a software that is way more powerful than Dreamscene and available for all Vista editions. The video wallpaper functionality supports more than just wmv and mpeg-2 compatible video formats; Basically any video that plays in Windows Media Player should work with SSDream as well.

It’s difficulty to mention all the features of SSDream in this short article which is why I concentrate on the most important ones only.

  • Supports all Vista versions
  • Desktop icons remain visible
  • Multi-monitor support
  • Videos, Images and Screensavers are supported
  • Cpu priority settings

The developer is currently trying to bring his application to Windows XP as well which would be really nice.
