VLC | video as wallpaper | wallpaper stays in foreground hiding the taskbar and desktop icons - vlc

I am using VLC to set a video as my desktop wallpaper on windows 10.
What is happening: VLC runs the video as desktop wallpaper, but the video stays in the foreground and is always hiding my taskbar and desktop icons.
When i press the Windows Key from keyboard, it shows the taskbar temporarily as long as the video is out of focus (desktop icons are still hidden).
What i want to happen:
I want the video in the background (as wallpaper) with my desktop icons and taskbar always visible.
I mean the video should run in the background (not in the foreground) like a normal wallpaper (it stays in the background).
The script i am using in a batch file is:
#echo off
title MyTitle
start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\VideoLAN\VLC\vlc.exe" --fullscreen --no-video-title-show --no-embedded-video --no-qt-fs-controller --qt-start-minimized --qt-system-tray --video-wallpaper --playlist-autostart --playlist-tree "C:\Users\User\Desktop\VLC\List"
is there a way to achieve that?
Would really appreciate your help.

Cordova: Live Video Streaming showing black screen in iOS

We are trying to build a video chat solution based on Cordova. The problem we have is we are getting a black screen in iOS, & Video is not getting played until you are clicking on it. Also, if clicked, a Black Screen would appear.
There are 2 different videos but both not getting played, instead, we are getting a live stream written along with the controls option
playsinline has been added in the video tag but still we are getting the same issue. No problem is there in Android.

Why this tutorial does not behave similarly in Win and iOS?

I was following this tutorial on the embarcadero docwiki and I noticed that when on iOS if I change the track bar the video will follow, or if I move another window above the video, when that window is removed I'll still be able to see the video. On windows though, changing the track bar position has no effect, and if another window comes above the media player then that window will be painted in it until I press play. Why does this happen?

Can't Play iFrame embedded YouTube video on iPad

I'm developing an iOS iPad app with an embedded YouTube video.
I'm having issues when the user tries to play the video touching the red square play image from YouTube, it seems that pressing that image won't trigger the play action. However, touching anywhere outside the red square play button works.
I've tested it with the iPad user agent with same results.
When embedding with controls:0 it seems that the action triggers perfectly, but I need the default controls.
Is there anyway to keep controls:1 and detect that touch to successfully play the video?
Try playing the video itself when it is loaded. If hitting the big red button is not a compulsion add "event.target.playVideo();" to the onReady function in the embeded HTML body. I have done so and the player in my application shows the big red button and starts the video itself immediately. I have used the following YouTube iFrame library youtube-ios-player-helper

Youtube in iframe on a modal is not working in iOS Safari after the modal is hidden then re-opened

I have a web app that is using Youtube videos embedded via iframes into a modal dialog window. In Safari on the iPad 3, iOS 5.1, the video plays properly the first time it's loaded. However, if the modal is hidden and then re-opened, the video will no longer be able to play. The player will display, but it's simply a black space with no controls. The YouTube watermark still appears, and can be clicked on.
The play button in the Safari control panel will play the audio of the video from where it left off, but the player still won't display any video.
The "related video" suggestion images will appear once the audio reaches the end, and then the video can be replayed normally.
Does anyone know what's causing this behaviour? The embedding works as intended in all major desktop browsers, and is fine the first time in iOS. It's only when it's reopened in iOS Safari that it fails.

iOS: background play from the browser?

Some iOS apps like Pandora continue playing audio after the app screen has been exited, and even after the device has been locked.
Is it possible to keep audio playing in this way from a browser tab? In other words, can I code an HTML5 page that plays audio and continues playing even after the iPhone is locked?
Yes, audio playing in a mobile Safari tab will continuously play even when multi-tasking or locking your screen. However, if you save the bookmark to the home screen, open, play audio, and then hop out to multi-task, the audio fades out.
Not possible... the browser displaying your page controls what happens when it is deactivated (sent to the background). HTML5 won't touch the behavior of the underlying browser as it relates to system events, so the only way to control background activity in iOS is to write a native app.
