vWallpaper video wallpaper released

[cphillips1009]

same problem i can ssh them to the right folder but they dont show up when i opne up the app on the phone. only fire and water showing up. hope you guys can help with this slight problem cause i want that matrix wallpaper.

make sure u copied the video to BOTH directories:
/Applications/vWallpaper.app/Library/Skrew/Videos
AND
/Library/Skrew/Videos

then they should show up.

what software can i use to convert 320 by 480

[Nem]

Thats not true.
Videos should been copied only to /Library/Skrew/Videos

[Gom33]

Thats not true.
Videos should been copied only to /Library/Skrew/Videos

I concur...

TIP: USE SUPER C TO CONVERT 320x480

...in fact, do NOT copy them to the Applications location at all, unless you purposely like losing more storage space. As Nem mentioned, the only place to copy the video wallpapers to is /Library/Screw/Videos.

for those making the video wallpapers...
- first, thanks for your work!
- second, for the wallpapers to look their best, it is important to consider how they loop - meaning the end of the video should seemlessly match the beginning of the video.
- these video wallpapers share many similarities with the Windows Dreamscenes/Stardock Deskscapes. It would be great for folks to look here - http://dream.wincustomize.com/ - to get some ideas, and also to perhaps convert some of these videos to the proper format for the iPhone.

very very very nice aps..works fine for my iphone


at your service

you can record video on your iphone with video recorder and use it with vwallpaper.

just thought id put it out there

To add to what others have said...
- When the vWallpaper is running, the Camera does not work. The Camera app will launch, and it appears that you can take a picture, but the app hangs with the shutter closed. You can just close the camera app by pressing the home button, but no photo has been taken.
- I can play YouTube videos with no problems at all when vWallpaper is running. I haven't tried with any downloaded videos in the iPod app.
- also, I have noticed that at times, the vWallpaper will "flash" so to speak during the loop. It's not the end of the loop - it seems at some random time in the loop.

[mfleigle]

[OPTICS]

Can somebody tell me why I can't find it on installer? I'm 1.1.3

[kuhnesito]

Nice, Now I can have dreamscene on my vista pc and this on my iphone so they both look cool

Except I am going to wait till the fixes are done cos I don't want to be having to shut down the app and restart springboard every time I want to take pictures or watch videos. Either way, great job!

It gives a 'Error: main script execution failed' on my 1.1.4 3.9BL pwned phone.

I suspect it may have to do something with the Ringtones.app also being installed, because the install script is referring to the ringtones hook and launchdaemon (perhaps I will follow this script for a manual installation, but first I will try to uninstall Ringtones.app and then install vWallpaper.app):

Great work and proof of concept. I hate that I have to sleep my phone to get the screen to shut off though. I like actually having talk time.
