Windows DreamScene Released for Vista Ultimate!

Today, Microsoft released the final update to Windows DreamScene for users of Windows Vista Ultimate.

As most of you already know, Windows DreamScene transforms your desktop from a static wallpaper image into a full-motion video. In conjunction with Stardock, we’re pleased to also offer a number of cool, new animated DreamScene desktops, including “Aurora”. Additionally, you can use your own videos as DreamScene desktops or visit Stardock’s Dream.WinCustomize.com website to download Stardock’s DeskScapes (an add-on to DreamScene) as well as a collection of fabulous content created by Stardock and members of the Ultimate community.

Don't forget once you get this installed, to head over to Dream.WinCustomize.Com and grab your free download of DeskScapes to enhance the desktop experience.

Yes this is the final release.

I am not very sure MS has got something substancial to offer in their Ultimate Extras offerings. I am starting to think this is turning out to be a pretty shameful feature for them!!

Yeah Vista Ultimate extras starting to prove that Ultimate is worth the extra bucks....

been using Dreamscene for sometimes but I think its a lot heavy on the memory...

Windows DreamScene transforms your desktop from a static wallpaper image into a full-motion video

But the same can be done using winamp(desktop mode) in XP itself.Then what is so special about it?

well its like an integrated feature with the OS which might make it a bit different...

^^lol.Nice reason.

I was asking that this feature is available in XP intself then what is the hype about?I have read about it a couple of times.

Dude put up any video you like and turn on the desktop mode it will be set as your desktop background(running).

Even this does not runs without AERO. :-(

I have a 915 based laptop. Out of luck.

^^I think dreamscene has to do with more processing power than RAM...
In some dreamscenes the CPU usage is high thats the only problem...

"the same can be done using winamp(desktop mode) in XP itself.Then what is so special about it?"
Didnt Knew this

^^give it a try I too found it by accident and was amazed by this but I don't know whay M$ is making such a fuss about it and why is it exclusive to only Vista Ultimate?

Edit:In VLC too just start playing any video and from video tab select Wallpaper and Woohoo Dreamscene in your XP\Vista.

Would certainly beg to differ with you...as I have always noticed thats my CPU usage fluctuates around zero when using Dreamscene whereas memory usage would shoot up from 300-400MB to around 600-800MB
