anavi is one of those things that you
0:06
must have in your learnings distribution
0:08
because using it you can apply live
0:10
wallpapers to your desktop like these
0:17
ones back in the days live wallpapers
0:19
used to be very popular in phones
0:21
especially in Android smartphones but
0:23
like everything else the trend FedEd
0:25
away but with hanavi you can get it back
0:27
at least onto your learning desktop so
0:30
this video we will see how to get hanavi
0:31
and its required dependencies second we
0:34
will set it up and fix some of the known
0:36
issues with hanavi and At Last I will
0:38
share you some of the popular sources
0:41
online from where you can get awesome
0:42
live wallpapers so let's get started now
0:46
there is one Clause with hanavi if I
0:48
haven't mentioned before then hanavi is
0:49
a gome extension which means it can only
0:52
work on the distributions that have gome
0:55
as a desktop environment and gome is one
0:57
of the most popular desktop environment
0:59
out there and many popular distributions
1:01
like Ubuntu Fedora pop West manzaro they
1:04
all come with a gome built and even if
1:07
your distribution doesn't have a gnome
1:09
build you can easily install
1:12
gnome while keeping this clause in mind
1:14
let's set things up first we are going
1:17
to install the dependencies and uh they
1:19
are very easy to do I might already have
1:22
in my system because I tried Hanabi
1:25
before so just open the Thal and uh
1:29
execute this command so what this
1:30
command will do basically install gitm
1:33
and this media G streamer uh Library I
1:36
already have these libraries but uh for
1:38
the sake of demonstration I'm going to
1:40
so just hit this command it will
1:41
download these dependencies and install
1:44
on to your system after getting these
1:46
dependencies we will get the hanavi from
1:48
the get so we are going to use get to
1:51
basically download the project onto our
1:53
system and then Mas to build it and I
1:56
think this will be used for the video
1:59
purposes I guess so let's get the
2:02
project for that you have to execute
2:04
this command we are using git and we are
2:06
cloning it so just hit the command and
2:08
it will create a folder by this name and
2:12
it will download the all the files so
2:14
now we just have to S to that
2:16
folder and uh we will find all the
2:19
project related files and we have this
2:22
script over here and we just have to
2:24
execute this script now to execute this
2:26
script we just have to type do/ and the
2:28
file name and uh we have to pass the
2:30
install as a parameter hit the enter and
2:33
it will be very quick everything is done
2:39
now so this shows all the available
2:42
extensions onto the system and hanavi
2:44
should be listed here and uh I'm not
2:46
able to find the Hanabi if that is the
2:49
case with you as well then you just have
2:51
to log out from your system and log back
2:54
in so I'm going to just do
2:58
that I have just logged out and logged
3:01
in back to my system and now let me
3:04
again and you can see the Hanabi
3:07
extension is listed over here now I just
3:09
have to enable it and uh it will get
3:12
activated by default it doesn't have any
3:15
file live wallpaper so we have to
3:17
provide that file so it accepts video
3:20
files I have one uh downloaded already
3:23
on my system so the wallpaper is looking
3:26
really good right it is looking sick you
3:28
also have the these options available so
3:31
you can simply pause the video if you
3:33
want you can also mute the audio if the
3:35
video has any audio you can unmute it
3:38
and play it back AP from that you can
3:40
directly open the preferences from here
3:42
after activating the hanavi extension
3:45
and you can change the different
3:47
settings and different uh live
3:50
wallpapers as well now before going to
3:52
the uh live wallpaper resources I have
3:55
to tell you one more thing which is if
3:57
in your system you're seeing this red
4:00
mark in your hanavi extension then it
4:03
basically means that the extension is
4:04
not supported in your gome version
4:07
basically to fix that what you can do
4:09
you just have to go to your settings
4:11
find out the version of gnome that is
4:15
installing your system so just navigate
4:16
to the systems and uh find out the gnome
4:20
version in my case I'm using the gnome
4:23
version 46 this is the latest LTS of2
4:27
this extension supports this particular
4:29
version if in your system it is not uh
4:32
supporting then what you can do you just
4:34
note down the gome version mine was 46
4:37
yours can be like 44.6 foot and uh you
4:41
just have to note it and go to in your
4:44
file explorer and hit contr H this will
4:48
basically enable hidden files you just
4:50
have to look for a folder called local.
4:53
local and inside this folder just
4:55
navigate to the share and inside the
4:57
share folder just navigate to the G cell
5:00
folder inside it extensions and inside
5:03
you will find this hanavi extension
5:05
folder here you just have to modify a
5:09
file so this is the metadata. Json file
5:12
and here you can see currently this
5:14
extension only support 45 and 46 version
5:18
of the gome cell and if your for example
5:24
44.2 then you can simply type here in
5:27
the double quotes and uh just save this
5:30
file and log out from your system log
5:33
back in and open the extension manager
5:35
and uh the red Mark will be gone this is
5:40
a quick hack to basically allow the
5:42
extension to work in your particular
5:44
gome version now let's see some of the
5:46
best resources available on the internet
5:49
from where you can get the live world
5:50
papers my favorite one is motion
5:53
background.com and this website has a
5:55
wide range of live wallpapers and it
5:58
also offers different resolutions like
6:00
4K and 1080p apart from that the best
6:03
part about this particular uh website is
6:06
that it provides you the optimize
6:08
wallpapers so the the live wallpaper
6:10
file is a video file right and that
6:12
video file can be optimized so that it
6:14
consume very less resources of your
6:17
system now how do I know that because I
6:19
basically downloaded some of the
6:21
wallpapers and tried it on my system and
6:23
they basically uh do not lag and uh if I
6:27
try to download wallpapers from
6:29
different websites other than motion
6:31
backgrounds then some of them uh
6:33
basically relax apart from that there
6:35
are different options also available and
6:37
they provide you different test of live
6:39
wallpapers like desktop heart my
6:42
wallpapers my live wallpapers.com and
6:46
wallpapers. pc.com so all these websites
6:50
have a ton of live wallpapers but they
6:52
all lack to provide multi-resolution
6:54
options and the file size is often
6:57
bigger when it compared to the motion
6:59
backgrounds live wallpapers having said
7:02
that there are options available out
7:05
there and uh if you find any better
7:07
options then these ones then do let me
7:09
know about them in the comment section
7:11
below a big thank you for watching this
