DreamMaker

How to increase the video limit

from Stardock Forums

I wish to know "How to increase the video limit for
DreamMaker" currently the limit is only 150mb so
is it possible to modify it so that I can use say
about around 500mb instead of the 150mb limit?.
I want to be able to create my dreams in high resolution
which I can use on the 4k Screens to my PC.
Your help would be appreciated, please.

This is what i am looking for also. 150mb is not a lot to work with in 4k. i'm not sure why there is even a limit to the file size, unless these file always reside in memory and a huge file would eat up too much RAM maybe but some of us have 32GB of RAM so having the option to have large files would be nice.

The limit is 150 mb.for dreams.

No way to change it .

Maybe in the future the limit may change

but that's it for now ....

I make a lot of dreams and work with that limit

it can be done.

You can point DeskScapes to a video file however videos will be loaded in memory or constantly read from disk so huge files would not be recommended.

Yes I do agree with Cheex18, that 150mb is not a lot to
work with in 4k Screen Pc Model.  Technicians for the
DreamMaker should endeavour to modify their software to
keep up with customers' usage of Today's New Technology
(ie 4K and soon 8K).
It would be unwise for users to have to point to
DeskScapes to a video files (as suggested by
Neil Banfield) and if that's the case then may as well
have DreamMaker sent to pasture.
Anyone up there with a better solution to increase
DreamMaker's Videoclips' Limit?.

How do you point DeskScapes to a video file? What sort of video may I use?

Avi or wmv only work with deskscapes

Open the Deskscapes program and drag a wmv file

Video into it and it will play as a dream unless you

rework the file first for a good loop your loop might

not be great unless the video has a good loop to start with.
