OpenLiveWalls
video wallpapers for macOS, local, private, hackable
OpenLiveWalls is a macOS menu bar app that turns your local video files into live desktop wallpapers. It also converts and patches videos for macOS native lock screen wallpaper support — all offline, all private. Unlike commercial alternatives, OpenLiveWalls is fully open-source. No accounts, no cloud, no telemetry. Your wallpapers stay on your machine.
Was pleasantly surprised how smoothly it handled a 4K clip without any noticeable performance hit on my M1 Mac. The lock screen wallpaper patching feature worked exactly as described.
