Tips on how to have a live wallpaper in Windows 7

What is Windows DreamScene?
Windows DreamScene is a utility that allows videos and other optimized animations to be used as desktop wallpapers. Ideally it will utilize the GPU instead of the CPU as compared to previous methods of desktop animation. The supported formats of  videos in Windows DreamScene are WMV and  MPEG (though according to what I've read you can also use AVI by altering its file extension).


Step 1: 
Download and Run as Administrator:  Windows 7 DreamScene Activator 1.1 (click here)

Al the installer does is, it will copy DreamScene.dll to %WinDir%\System32 folder, DreamScene.dll.mui to %WinDir%\System32\en-US folder and add the required registry keys and values. 
Then it will automatically restart the Explorer to make the installation of DreamScene works immediately. 


Step 2: 
Choose a video with a format which is supported by Windows DreamScene (MPEG and WMV). Right click the video and then choose the "Set as desktop background".
