## For GNOME user πΎ
Please also check my new project [Hanabi](https://github.com/jeffshee/gnome-ext-hanabi)! While the project is still in its infancy, it has the potential to become more integrated with GNOME Shell
## Features π₯
There are several solutions to achieve video as wallpaper on Linux, for example:
1. [Xwinwrap + mpv](https://www.linuxuprising.com/2019/05/livestream-wallpaper-for-your-gnome.html)
2. [Komorebi](https://github.com/cheesecakeufo/komorebi)
Hidamari offers similar feature as above, with additional features listed below:
- [x] Autostart after login
- [x] Apply static wallpaper with blur effect 1
- [x] Detect maximized window and fullscreen mode 2
- [x] Volume control
- [x] Mute/Pause the playback anytime with just 2 clicks!
- [x] I'm feeling lucky 3
- [x] Hardware accelerated video decoding! 4
- [x] Gnome Wayland support!
- [x] Multi-monitor support!
- [x] Streaming URL support! 5
- [x] Webpage as wallpaper! 6
- [ ] You name it! =)
1 Video frame can be applied as system wallpaper, look great in GNOME (currently GNOME exclusive, support for other DE might be added if requested...)
2 Automatically pauses playback when maximized window or full screen mode is detected (currently X11 only...)
3 Randomly select and play a video
4 Use vlc as backend (currently HW acceleration doesn't work with Nvidia+Wayland combination...)
5 Use yt-dlp as backend, tested with YouTube videos
6 Theoretically it can be anything from a normal webpage to Unity/Godot WebGL games, be creative!
