There are several solutions to achieve video as wallpaper on Linux, for example:
Hidamari offers similar feature as above, with additional features listed below:
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!
