Microsoft announces DreamScene for Windows Vista
section: windows, for your questions: KezNews forum, 8.1.2007
Your desktop background comes to life with Windows DreamScene™. When you download this Ultimate Extra, you can select a video for your desktop background the same way you select a stationary picture.
You can choose one of the high-quality looping videos that we’ve included, or use a video from a company that produces content for DreamScene. You can even use your own video as a background.
If you’re wondering what effect a video background might have on your battery life, don’t worry. Windows DreamScene respects your power settings and pauses the video to conserve battery power.
Some things that you should know before you start using Windows DreamScene:
* Windows DreamScene supports only .mpeg and .wmv video file formats.
* Windows DreamScene video support requires a graphics card that supports Windows Aero™.
For computers that do not support the Windows Aero desktop experience, this Extra still has something to offer: Windows DreamScene adds new positioning options for backgrounds, including stationary pictures.
Format: wmv

why not implement a 3d background? not just a video but actual real time calculated 3d? like in 3dmark07. the
scenes that are rendered there look awsome. it would be cool if you were able to interact with it too - like
changing the viewing angle, when you move your mouse, and stuff like that. that would be some real
improvement.
the widgets should take care of interactive aspect -- live interactive 3d render will use a lot of cpu which
wont be good for all the slow cpu's...
