![]() ![]() This program does a terrific job of putting beautiful moving images on your desktop. If you want to display widgets on your Desktop, you can use the FREE WidgetRunner, It works great standalone or with other programs like My Living Desktop. It has more features and appears to work better at least on on my system. If they do not, I would recommend My Living Desktop. But if you just want to play QT ,movies on your Desktop, please try Mach Desktop first to make sure you can hear audio and the movies loop properly on your Mac. The widgets do NOT FLOAT on top of the windows like other solutions.īut if you want more control on the layer on which your widget resides, you will need to use another solution like the FREE WidgetRunner.Īll in all, MachDesktop has some great features and the price is right. One of the BEST features is its ability to display widgets on your desktop. But it will probably make your Desktop ugly. Pity.Īnd yes you can display a web page on your Desktop (like MS Active Desktop). Right now you cannot easily use any of their great Quartz animations ALSO as a Screensaver, You will need to do that manually. (And when you import a new Quartz composition, import into into your list of available Screensavers). I would prefer the ability to use one of your Quartz Screensavers as your Desktop Animation (like WallSaver). But it does not easily let you use one of your Quartz ScreenSavers as the desktop animation. Mach Desktop does play Quartz compositions on your Desktop. (My Living Desktop does this).īut unlike My Living Desktop. Better yet, also add the ability to automatically MUTE audio when certain applications like iTunes are running. You will want to do that when you play music in iTunes etc. I also would like to see an option in the MenuBar to EASILY mute the audio without having to go into the Preferences. I am sure these are small bugs that can easily be fixed. At the end of the loop, the motion stops but I still hear the sound. (and yes, I do have the volume UP in the Mach Desktop Preferences).īug 2 - It has trouble looping some of my QT movies. If I use my own movies, I can hear sound. ![]() Mach Desktop appears to work well on my Desktop but it appears to have some bugs when playing back QT movies.īug 1 - I cannot hear any sound from the included QT movies. ![]()
