Hi, I'd like to request adding support for Live Wallpapers in COMSIC DE. This feature would let users set animated backgrounds that play video on the lock screen and freeze to a static image when unlocked. This idea is inspired by the Live Wallpaper feature in macOS.

Benefits:

  • Visual Appeal: Live Wallpapers can make the desktop more engaging.
  • Customization: Users can personalize their workspace with unique animations.
  • Functionality: Similar to macOS, this would provide a smooth transition between dynamic and static backgrounds.

Feature Ideas:

  1. Video Backgrounds: Support for video files (e.g., MP4) as wallpaper.
  2. Lock Screen Animation: The selected video plays on the lock screen.
  3. Static Transition: When unlocked, the wallpaper freezes on the last frame.
  4. Customization Options: Allow adjustments for playback speed and looping.

This feature could leverage existing video playback libraries to ensure smooth performance without significantly impacting system resources #24.

Here's an example video demonstrating how it works on macOS for the lock screen, for instance:
