Loop v1.0.0 — Video Desktop Wallpaper & Screensaver for macOS

Loop is a lightweight native macOS menu bar app that turns any local video into a seamless, gapless looping desktop wallpaper and companion screensaver.

✨ Highlights

  • Hardware-Accelerated Playback: Built on native AVFoundation with zero external dependencies, keeping CPU usage strictly under 3%.
  • Universal Multi-Display: Shared decoder decoded once and playing in sync across all connected monitors and desktop Spaces.
  • Lock Screen & Screen Saver Included: Automatically applies a matching poster frame to the Lock Screen and installs LoopSaver.saver to play full video during idle.
  • Configurable Battery Saver: Keep looping on battery power, and auto-pause when your battery drops below your chosen threshold (e.g. 20%).
  • Occlusion & Sleep Smart: Automatically pauses when covered by full-screen apps or when displays sleep, resuming instantly on wake.
  • Native SwiftUI Settings: Live preview, display selector, and scaling mode picker (Fill, Fit, Stretch).
