I've also added the Pause wallpaper setting to be a per monitor option to our feature request list.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/pause-video-wallpaper-if-a-video-or-game-is-running-fullscreen/?ID=018c0e8c-3e01-715f-a23a-c886e62987e1 Mon, 27 Nov 2023 02:12:01 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/pause-video-wallpaper-if-a-video-or-game-is-running-fullscreen/?ID=018c0e8c-3e01-715f-a23a-c886e62987e1 DisplayFusion I've just started experimenting with video wallpapers. But it's eating resources even when I can't see it

I found the option to "Pause wallpaper changes while a full screen application is running." but it doesn't seem to stop the video decoding based on Task Manager.

Is this an oversight?

Also, would i be able to apply this on a per-monitor basis or apply to both if anything is fullscreen on either monitor? ]]>
