Two files below — grab both: Live-Wallpaper-v3.1.0.zip (the plugin) and video-wallpaper-selector.html (the desktop tool you bake with).

What's new

  • Web wallpapers render far more reliably — a web wallpaper now serves its whole folder locally and mounts the real files, so complex ones that used to show black now work. The old inline method stays as an automatic fallback.
  • Per-game web wallpapers get the same treatment.
  • New Video / Web / Scene tabs in the picker. Scene stays unsupported (only Video and Web can be baked).
  • Web options — optional fake audio, fake mouse, and a bundled music track that plays behind Home and drives visualizers.
  • Cold-boot fix — the wallpaper now appears on its own when you enter Game Mode from a cold boot (no more toggling once).

Re-bake to apply. No settings reset — saved tweaks and your per-game library are preserved.

Known issue (not the plugin)

Re-baking several times in one session can make Decky vanish from the Quick Access Menu — a known Decky Loader bug with Desktop↔Game-Mode reloads. It happens with any plugin (even a do-nothing build), not this wallpaper. Restart Steam (or sudo systemctl restart plugin_loader) to recover; normal single-bake use is unaffected. The picker now warns you about this too.
