xDesk2 is a Dreamscene-like app that works on both XP and Vista. It sits in your system tray, and generally uses only around 10MB. Because the way the app works, getting a screenshot is impossible, so i put up a picture of the interface menu.

graphics design originally by Rhor ( [link] ), used with permission.

Please note that I have made this app Donation ware, because i have recently lost my job, and i have a one and a half year old son i need to pay support for.

so please, any donations at all will be appreciated, just email solo.dev(at)gmail.com if you wish to make a donation.

Yepp it works. Only "Hide desktop" and "Hide shortcut arrow" isn't working. But this doesn't matter.:)

Any way to make the videos not fullscreen and not hide desktop icons? :\

no, because that defeats the purpose of it. Anything else besides that is a windowed Ui, if you need a windowed ui, use mediaplayer.

This isn't working for me. I installed and tried to run the program and I see it running in applications on task manager, but it's not opening any windows or anything like that.

Interesting I will test drive it and let you know how it works out on my Vista Home 32bit Machine,

I just discovered I can use VLC for this same functions but Im a bit of a discovery person I have wanted to do this for years and nows the time.

Thanks Lisa
