How do i set it?
Make sure you get permission from the content creator. Then search for Youtube video downloader you will find several sites that can do this.
Then short videos for this…3 second! I wish see this in my R8NP…
After you set a video file as wallpaper with the Gallery app, you can use any 3rd party wall.

How do you download a YouTube video?
Same boat, but we’re close, you can jump to the beta of it if needed, but there’s not too much reason to at this point.
I never even see my block screen, straight from black screen to unlocked through fingerprint
Fuck you
I wasn’t aware of this. Thanks mate
How?? Battery management is really trash on MIUI 11
Wtf ?! I just got that for 42 day xdd
Yep those are the steps I used about 1 month ago.
Yes you can
Yes see above comment
I was able to get lock screen and home screen with the default Xiaomi themes app in miui10.

Not true. Custom live wallpaper can run on miui10. I was able to get it working on lock and home screen on miMix3(5g) and the regular Xiaomi themes app
Just installed it 😀 Thanks!
Overdoing it
i downloaded one plus pack but when apply the homescreen and block screen turns black and dont work the wallpaper i have a redmi note 5 with miui 11
God bless <3
For those that doesn’t like marvel could use r/cinemagraphs for more footage

It will totally worth it. Shut up and take my %15.
Requires MIUI 11.
And how does one do this? (Mi9t global build)
🙁
Nope, although it is not hard to do it you know?
That’s ok. Chill.
And i was trying to say, now this is a built-in feature in MiUI, without using any external apps. Can you set a video as a live wallpaper before MIUI 11, without using an external app?
Fuck me, my bad.
So your telling me that you can keep any wallpaper as lockscreen live wallpaper? Like having a video of myself walking down th road as my phone’s lockscreen live wallpaper?
I used it on Zedge in miui 10, please don’t lie, I invite everyone to try it out (not getting paid tho)
I can pretty much assure you that we can’t set ANY VIDEO as your LOCKSCREEN WALLPAPER until MIUI 11.
Before MiUI 11, we were only able to set live wallpapers for Homescreen.
Already available with zedge since android 6, c’mon dude
With great power comes great battery consumption.
Post this on r/marvelstudios for karma
Cannot help you with the MIUI11 update though. 🙁
This is for [Non-MIUI 11 users I suppose.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/dygpoa/putting_the_new_feature_to_set_videos_as_live/f81m0d7?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share)
Is there any way I can get the update?
Make it as a seperate post mate. Much appreciated.
For those who are still on the MIIU. You can do this with any video file. I used a HDR video from youtube.
Here are the instructions.
Open File Manager make sure that you are showing hidden folders by clicking the three dots on the top right just under you storage info.
Then click on the MIUI folder and create a folder called. .videowallpaper Don’t forget the period in front of the name.
Now just copy any video file into that directory.
Open your wallpaper settings and click on the smiley face on the bottom right. Then click wallpapers. You do not have to have a Mi account. Then click My wallpaper movies. Your video will show up there and you can add it to the lock screen as well.
Its a bit of a workaround but once you have it setup its a lot easier to add to it. All you have to do is save the video file to the .videowallpaper directory and it will show up under My wallpaper movies.
Hope that helps.
K20 pro on india got MIUI 11 way back.
No mention. 🙂
My Mi 9t pro is still running on miui10
Why? 🙁
Thanks a lot
Jealous.
MI NOTE 7. MIUI 11.
What phone are you using?
?
I just tryed and we can’t
And that’s a great choice.
🙁
I am using the reddit boost app on redmi note 8. You can download gifs that have been shot vertically in .m4v format and use them for animated wallpapers. Though be careful the is a sub called verticalgifs that is very NSFW.
Thats kinda lot
Germany, guess I’ll have to wait for the global or EU update
I’ve got no gifs to try it out.
India and you?
What region are you in?
Was commenting the same from my RN7 yesterday. After commenting went to check the update page. Clicked on check updates. Booom. Got MIUI 11.
Still no MIUI update for me on RN7 🙁
Unlucky. Your time will come
Still no updates available. Sad.
For now I have shower rat – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fblay5r1r9s
No, the starship launch is better: https://imgur.com/a/SndkLPq
Does it work with gif ?
Why? I’m going to have a smooth slightly moving wallpaper on the lockscreen to make it a bit more dynamic
Settings>About phone>System update>check. (Mi 9t, should be the same). Not sure how to manually update it
Damn, I had no idea this was a thing. Thanks!
Shouldn’t it use up about as much energy as any moving wallpaper?
I’ll try upload mine and link it here
Oh? I didn’t know that. I’ll go and try find some with resolution good enough.
I prefer GIF. Well loop GIF. And it work on both screen lock and home screen.
LOL.
You can, there’s an option on the top right.
Why I cant make mute video in wallpaper
Yeah, MIUI11 brings this new feature.
Is this a MIUI 11 feature? I have a RN8 Pro with MIUI 10 and there’s no option to do this
Roger :3
Hmm, the loop works on homescreen but not on lockscreen ….??
And, is there any video wallpaper that is truly a looped one? These just make me hickup, because they jump to beginning when they reach end , and it’s ugly.
I want here’s johnny scene, but I’m too lazy to cut it xD

Thanks mate.
Does anyone here know how to update mi 9t pro to miui11?
Disable video sound I think
I have it on lockscreen (not the Marvel one but one of the preinstalled ones) and it does nothing to battery life, but is nice to see when screen turns on for notification and such.
For me it doesn’t. Is there anything specific you did?
On contrary. Makes sense only on lockscreen. And on home screen , you get to make it overcrowded with information not being able to recognize your icons.
Thanks so much
Go to Miui forums, and register. You can then search and download piles of animated wallpapers.
Then you put them in /MIUI/.videowallpaper/ directory … they should be *.m4v files with certain resolution. I got ones for iPhone and for OnePlus.
There are few apps. Search it in play store.
Wow! Gave me the idea to use the new Star Wars intro (ala Marvel) before The Mandalorian!
No problem mate. 🙂
Thanks man
[For anyone who’s asking for the Marvel intro.](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dIFATFMhFaa5kEQ1Yqc033ZTaCsxhtNP/view?usp=drivesdk)

Drive link?
Copy the url and paste it in the comment
🙂
Yes, but not very much.
I don’t know how to to Post the link on the comments.
I’ve been on reddit for a year, and i still don’t know how to post links in comment, please teach me how.
That’s Sick
It does loops
Does It drain battery 🤔
Post the video link please.
Provide the link for the video man..
HOES
GOALS.
Yeah, it works on the home screen. But not sure about the loop thing though.
I’d take the scene from American Psycho where Batemen is winking and pointing at himself in the mirror as he’s banging the hooker.
Quick question, does video wallpaper also work on home screen, and does it loop automatically?
It works only when on launcher which is tooo less
I mean it would be like 10 mins in a whole day
Nope , the battery standby is still great for me. I lose like only 4% more than usual.
This is the only thing holding me back
RIP the battery
Go to Gallery > Select any desired video > Press the three dots at the bottom > choose set as video wallpaper. Simple.
Make a guide please! Looks amazing.
