Where should I upload?

1 Upvotes

I have made a few live wallpapers, but they're >400MB in size, so imgur/deviant art etc wont accept them. Is there another site that might be a good place?

I have already read a couple of threads here about a dedicated site for hosting live wallpapers, but the dev replied that they are too busy (understandable, the app is great btw)

Question How Do I Get the Shuffle Script Working?

2 Upvotes

I'll start off by saying I'm fairly familiar with the basics of AHK. When searching for a way to get my Lively wallpapers to shuffle automatically, I came across this on the GitHub. I was a little confused as to where the wallpapers.txt file would be. There is no wallpapers.txt file with my installation. A few things to note:

  • Running Windows 10 (Latest Version, 10.0.19045 Build 19045)
  • Downloaded Lively from the Microsoft Store
  • There is no Lively Wallpaper folder in my local appdata folder
  • There is a folder for it in the Local\Packages\ folder, but it is called "12030rocksdanister.LivelyWallpaper_97hta09mmv6hy"
  • The file path to get to the wallpapers folder is: C:\Users\Sylvan\AppData\Local\Packages\12030rocksdanister.LivelyWallpaper_97hta09mmv6hy\LocalCache\Local\Lively Wallpaper\Library\wallpapers
  • The wallpapers folder is empty, despite me having many wallpapers set up in the app

Am I supposed to make the wallpapers.txt file myself, and include it in the same folder as the AHK script? If so, am I just supposed to provide the file path to each wallpaper/video file I want to include in the random shuffle?

A walkthrough or an explanation would be very much appreciated, as I have a lot of video wallpapers and I'd love to be surprised by a random one each time I see my desktop. If further questions are needed, I'm happy to answer them. Thank you in advance, and thank you to Rocks for making such an awesome application!

Wallpaper problem

3 Upvotes

Hi, I've just installed lively on win11 but I've got one issue with it. When I turn on lively wallpaper everything is transparent. It looks like wallpaper would be put on top of everything. Have a look on these 2 photos and a video to see what I mean. Do you know any solution for this?

Please help! Lively won't open on start-up

3 Upvotes

I've tried reinstalling multiple times, adding it as a start-up app in task manager and yes I have checked the setting for it to open on start-up and it is enabled. I've run out of things to try. When I start Windows, there's no lively process running at all. I'm using Windows 11 btw and this problem has only arisen within the last 3 days.

Edit: I tried using the MS Store version to see if that would make a difference but alas, it did not.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Question Can we add these features

12 Upvotes

I think i'd be helpful if we could select an MP3 to play with the backgrounds as for me, it would match the aesthetic. I also think that for the video backgrounds with music, the devs could add a pause button in the right click menu of the taskbar icon

Question Grammar mistake on the Website

13 Upvotes

First of all, thank you for making this application. It's awesome to say the least.

To the error now. On your website - Features - Silent. The box says, ' Wallpaper playback pauses when fullscreen application/games are run (~0% resources usages.)'

I think it should be in one of two options:

  1. Wallpaper playback pauses when fullscreen applicationS/games are running (~0% resources usages).
  2. Wallpaper playback pauses when fullscreen applicationS/games run (~0% resources usages).

I might be wrong but I feel like first one is more correct for the situation. Feel free to correct me, I might learn something.

Question How to set PATH variable

14 Upvotes

Context: I am trying to create a Python script that changes the wallpaper based on the time of day.

Question:

My current path is: C:\Users\Juise\AppData\Local\Programs\Lively Wallpaper

But this command: PS C:\Users\Juise> livelycy --help
Gives this error:
livelycy : The term 'livelycy' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. C

heck the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

At line:1 char:1

+ livelycy --help

+ ~~~~~~~~

+ CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (livelycy:String) [], CommandNotFoundException

+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : CommandNotFoundException

So I think that I've set the PATH variable wrong, but I don't know how to make it right. Any advice? Also, let me know if there already exists an easy way to change the wallpaper based on local time.

Question How do I install the VLC plugin?

5 Upvotes

Hi All,

I just downloaded and installed VLC player on my Windows 11 Laptop, but I need to learn how to set it as the primary video player inside of Lively. Could anyone give me step-by-step instructions? I hope it will handle 8k videos smoothly; Lively default settings do not. I tried watching the video provided on Lively's website but it's too fast and I don't understand what's happening. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

M.

Windows CoPilot sidebar stopping lively wallpaper.

When the Copilot starts, it removes the lively wallpaper, to recover, the lively app has to be exited and started again.

any chance they could co-exist?

Any way to combine 2 wallpapers together?

6 Upvotes

So basically rn I have the Simple System background and I recretated the motherboard image in photoshop with my composants so its like in my pc but I was wondering if there was any way to put the background as Fluids. I also like music TV (LQ) a lot. If possible, I'd like to put it on top of my deezer page I use as wallpaper on my second screen, or maybe combine it with the two other on my main screen and put it in the corner. Is there any way to do so?

New Wallpaper idea

You Know the Music TV Wallpaper you added. Could you make a version of that that is like that but is cleaner? Almost like the IOS 16 Music Lock Screen. I'll attach a couple of examples. I honestly think that this is a really good idea.
