Using DesktopHut.com
Finding, downloading, and sharing wallpapers on the site itself.
01 · Overview
What DesktopHut is
DesktopHut is a library of free live wallpapers — video wallpapers, image wallpapers, and interactive/web wallpapers — organized by category, platform, and resolution, plus the home for DesktopHut Studio, the desktop app that plays and creates them.

02 · Finding 壁紙
Browsing & discovering
There's more than one way to land on a wallpaper you'll actually want.
- Categories. The homepage and nav list every category — Nature, Anime, Abstract, Gaming, and more. Each category page is itself filterable by resolution and platform.
- Search & tags. Use the search bar for a keyword, or click any tag on a wallpaper's page to see everything else sharing it.
- Editor's Choice. A hand-picked shelf of standout wallpapers, refreshed regularly — a good starting point if you're just browsing.
- Platform filter. Filter to only the platforms you actually use (Windows, Android, iOS/macOS) so you're not scrolling past wallpapers you can't use.
Tip. Every card shows a small resolution/type badge in its corner — 4K, 1080p、または Interactive for live HTML wallpapers — so you can tell what you're getting before you click in.
03 · What you'll find
Wallpaper types
DesktopHut hosts a few different kinds of wallpaper, and it's worth knowing which is which before you download.
| Type | What it is | Plays with |
|---|---|---|
| 動画 | A looping video file (usually MP4) | Any video wallpaper app, including DesktopHut Studio |
| 画像 | A single high-resolution static image | Your OS's normal wallpaper setting |
| Interactive / Web | HTML/JS壁紙パッケージ（バッジはWEB）、または.dhシーン | DesktopHut Studio |
インタラクティブ壁紙と.dh壁紙は、本格的なモーションとエフェクトを備えたものです。再生方法については、下の壁紙ライブラリをご覧ください。
04 · Downloading
Downloading a wallpaper
- Open the wallpaper's page. Click into any card from a listing or search result.
- Check the type badge. It tells you whether you're getting a video, image, or interactive package before you download anything.
- Click Download. The file downloads directly — no account or sign-in needed.
- Set it. Video and interactive wallpapers need DesktopHut Studio (or another wallpaper player) to actually run as your desktop background; images can be set through your OS's normal wallpaper picker.
05 · Contributing
Submitting a wallpaper
Made or found something worth sharing? Anyone can submit a wallpaper — no account required.
- Open the submission form. Linked from the site's footer/nav as "Submit a Wallpaper."
- Fill in the details. A title, a short description, and the category it belongs in — accurate tags help people actually find it later.
- Upload the file. Video, image, or interactive package.
- Wait for review. Submissions are checked by an admin before they go live — this usually doesn't take long, but isn't instant.

DesktopHut Studio
デスクトップアプリで、壁紙の再生と自作ができます。アプリのページとダウンロードもあわせてご覧ください。
01 · Overview
What the app does
DesktopHut Studioは、ひとつのアプリに2つの機能を備えています。壁紙ライブラリは壁紙を実際のWindowsデスクトップ背景として再生し、Motion Photo Editorはあらゆる写真を新しい壁紙に変えます。
02 · Setup
Getting started
- Install the app. Pick Microsoft Store, portable, or MSI from the download page.
- Open the Library. It's empty at first — drag in a downloaded wallpaper file, or download one directly from DesktopHut.com.
- Apply it. Select a wallpaper and click Apply — it becomes your live desktop background immediately.
03 · Playing 壁紙
The Wallpaper Library
ライブラリでは、動画、HTMLパッケージ、.dhシーン、オンラインURL（YouTubeリンクなど）の4種類の壁紙を、ひとつのグリッドで再生できます。
Adjusting a wallpaper live
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Fit | Fill, fit, stretch, or center across your display(s) |
| Brightness / Contrast / Saturation | Live color adjustment, no re-export |
| Hue | Shift the wallpaper's overall color |
| Playback rate | Slow down or speed up a video/scene |
| Mute audio | Silence any wallpaper that carries sound |
Multi-monitor & span mode
モニターごとに別々の壁紙を再生することも、ひとつのシーンをすべてのモニターにまたがる連続したキャンバスとして表示することもできます。スパン表示の様子は、アプリのページのデモでご確認いただけます。
Performance
Low Resource Mode, adjustable quality tiers, hardware decoding, an FPS limit, and automatic pausing (fullscreen games, screen lock, and more) keep a wallpaper from getting in the way of everything else you're doing. A live CPU/RAM readout sits right on each wallpaper's card.
Custom scene controls
一部の.dhシーンには、シーン自身が定義するオンスクリーンコントロール（スライダー、トグル、カラーピッカー）が含まれており、ライブラリの詳細パネルにそのまま表示されます。
04 · Making 壁紙
The Motion Photo Editor
Import a photo, paint motion onto part of it, and export a new living wallpaper.
Layers
A scene is built from layers — the base image, an optional bone rig (for character movement), GIF/text/solid-color layers, and particle assets.
65 motion presets, 8 categories
モーションと変位、水、光と色、天候とパーティクルマスク、スタイライズとパーティクル駆動、ガラスとレンズ、ぼかしとフォーカス、ポストプロセスの各カテゴリがあります。注目すべき例外がCloth Swayで、シェーダープリセットではなく、髪、マント、カーテンなどに使われる本格的なヴェルレ積分の物理演算です。
Masks & parameters
Paint a soft-edged mask to control exactly where an effect applies, then fine-tune its parameters — and optionally keyframe them so the effect itself changes over time.
Exporting
| Format | Best for |
|---|---|
| MP4 / GIF / WebP | Sharing a clip, or using it outside DesktopHut Studio entirely |
| HTML live wallpaper | A lightweight interactive package |
.dhパッケージ | The native format — full effects, layers, and any custom scene controls |

02 · Troubleshooting
FAQ & troubleshooting
Installation
Windowsが未確認のアプリについて警告を表示します（SmartScreen）。
This is normal for smaller independent apps that haven't yet built up SmartScreen reputation. Click "More info" then "Run anyway" if you trust the source you downloaded from (the DesktopHut download page or Microsoft Store).
ウイルス対策ソフトがアプリの一部を検出または隔離しました。
The video-playback component can occasionally trigger a false positive on some antivirus engines. Restore it from quarantine and add an exception if your antivirus lets you review what was flagged.
インストール時に「.NET Framework」のエラーが表示されます。
Install the latest .NET Desktop Runtime from Microsoft, then re-run the DesktopHut Studio installer.
Windows 7や8で動作しますか？
No — DesktopHut Studio requires Windows 10 or 11.
Display
GPUが2つあるノートPCで画面が真っ暗になります。
This is usually a dual-GPU (integrated + dedicated) driver conflict. In your GPU control panel, set DesktopHut Studio to always use the integrated GPU, then restart the app.
ビジュアルエフェクトの表示がおかしい、またはWindowsがハイコントラストモードになっています。
High Contrast mode overrides how Windows renders transparency and layered windows, which can distort a live wallpaper. Turn it off in Windows' Accessibility settings if you don't need it.
My wallpaper conflicts with Rainmeter (or a similar desktop tool).
Both apps compete for desktop-level rendering — try setting Rainmeter's skins to "on top" instead of "on desktop," or run DesktopHut Studio without Rainmeter to confirm the conflict before adjusting settings further.
スパンさせた動画壁紙に黒い帯が表示されます。
This usually means the monitors' resolutions or aspect ratios don't match cleanly for spanning — try per-monitor wallpapers instead, or a scene built specifically for your layout.
Performance
アプリのCPUまたはRAMの使用量が多すぎます。
Turn on Low Resource Mode, lower the quality tier, cap the FPS limit, and enable hardware decoding if it isn't already on. The live CPU/RAM readout on each wallpaper's card helps you spot which one is heaviest.
スリープ後やエクスプローラーの再起動後に壁紙が復帰しません。
Re-apply the wallpaper from the Library — DesktopHut Studio re-attaches automatically in most cases, but a restart of Windows Explorer can occasionally require a manual re-apply.
General
My monitor got disconnected and reconnected — what happens to my wallpaper?
DesktopHut Studio remembers your per-monitor assignments and re-applies them automatically once the monitor is back.
Can I hide my desktop icons while a wallpaper plays?
Yes — there's a toggle for this in the app's display settings.
Is macOS support the same app?
いいえ。macOSはDesktopHut Studioではなく、DesktopHutの共同開発パートナーが開発・保守するWallspaceが対応しています。両方のダウンロードリンクはアプリのページをご覧ください。
