Description
Collection of walks/rides across Japan, more than 24 hours of footage
I highly recommend to turn down the volume of Wallpaper Engine below 25 when using this collection.

Why are these videos 720P and not a higher resolution?
Due to most of these videos being longer than an hour, it was difficult to convert these YouTube videos to a higher resolution than 720P.
Another reason is that given that these videos together make up more than 24 hours of footage, it would have made it quite a large download, which it already is.

A playlist is highly recommended. Why a playlist?
In order to have all the videos in this collection to play without having to manually open up Wallpaper Engine and select the next video.

Follow these steps to make a playlist of every video in this collection.

- Select each video on the Wallpaper Engine app by clicking on the blue checks on the upper right of a workshop tile,
this action will result in the creation of a playlist down below the workshop tiles.
- After selecting each video, which should start with '720P before each title making it easier to select and not miss any video.
- Go down below and hit the save 💾 (floppy disk) button, that is located on the right side of the playlist title and next to the folder button
in order to save this playlist.
- Click on the gears button ⚙️ which is located next to the 💾, you'll be met with the playlist settings screen.

These are the setting I personally use and recommend:

- Change 'Change wallpaper' to 'On a timer'
- Set the timer to '2 Hours 0 Minutes', most of the videos take between 15 minutes to 1 hour 30 minutes
- Change 'Order' to 'Random'

Once you're done with your playlist configuration. I also recommend to change the 'Performance' settings of Wallpaper Engine.
These are the setting I personally use and recommend.

For 'Playback' settings:

- Change 'Other application focused' to 'Mute'
- Change 'Other application maximized' to 'Mute'
- Change 'Other application fullscreen' to 'Mute'
- Change 'Other application playing audio' to 'Mute'
- Change 'Display asleep' to 'Stop (free memory)'

Note: If you like to sit back and listen to Spotify (or other applications) while watching the videos play on your wallpaper, you can set an unique rule,
here is how you can set one.

- Click on 'Edit' next to the 'Application rules', Click on 'Create new rule' select your desired application,
- after the selecting your desired application, change 'Condition' to 'Is playing audio' and 'Wallpaper playback' to 'Keep running', proceed
to click on 'Create' when done.

Congratulations, you can now sit back and enjoy the relaxing videos while vibing to your favorite tunes.

For 'Quality' settings (recommended for low end systems):

- Change 'Anti-aliasing' to 'None'
- Change 'Resolution' to 'Full'
- Change 'FPS' to 25 or higher
- Turn off 'Post-processing' and 'Reflections' since you won't have need for these when having video backgrounds.

More videos will be added in the future.
