DVDesktop

Mac OS

✭✭✭✭✭ On Sale until the new year! ✭✭✭✭✭

DVDesktop is an exciting new way to watch your DVDs and digital movies by letting you watch them as a floating transparent window or play them as desktop video wallpaper.

"It's something that I didn't know I always wanted. I'm actually watching movies over all my work and it’s fantastic!"
-- Alex

*** To load a movie or DVD there is a film menu item icon in the top right of the menu bar. Some Macs are not letting DVDesktop live in the background and therefore showing the the apps main menu. I'll be adding the DVDesktop menu items to the app menu in the next release.

Watch your DVDs or QuickTime movies in window mode and the movie floats over every window on your desktop. It lets you click and type through the movie window as if it wasn't even there. It's the best unobtrusive way to work and have a movie playing at the same time.

With DVDesktop Video you can also replace static, non-moving background pictures with beautiful digital full motion videos while still having access to all desktop icons, windows and applications.

Some of the features include:
• Have your DVDs and digital movies play in crisp full screen wallpaper mode or in a window set to any size you want
• See and click through a DVD or digital movie window while you work
• Watch your movies in a transparent window
• Watch your movies as a desktop wallpaper
• Full screen and window modes
• Move and Resize the movie the way you want
• Change the transparency
• Continuously Loop Mode
• VIDEO_TS folder support so you can play DVDs off of your hard drive.
• Save a DVD bookmark anytime or automatically when closing

Due to DRM restrictions DVDesktop cannot play movies purchased from iTunes.

DVDesktop cannot play DVD movies or VIDEO_TS files when another application on your Mac is using the DVD drive to playback DVD video. For more information and a complete step-by-step walk through please visit http://www.dvdesktop.com/help.
