Bluefin animated wallpaper with Hidamari

Bluefin ships an original 1080p looping movie for Hidamari. On a Bluefin image containing the movie, install the Video Wallpaper bundle from ChairLift’s Applications page, then copy the movie into Hidamari’s video folder as described below.

Copy the movie

Run these commands in a host terminal as your normal user (without sudo):

videos_dir="$(xdg-user-dir VIDEOS)" &&
    test -n "$videos_dir" &&
    mkdir -p "$videos_dir/Hidamari" &&
    cp -i /usr/share/backgrounds/bluefin/bluefin-hidamari.webm \
        "$videos_dir/Hidamari/bluefin-hidamari.webm"

This uses your configured Videos directory, including localized names and paths containing spaces. If a copy already exists, cp -i asks before replacing it. If the source file is missing, update to a Bluefin image that includes the movie, reboot into it, and try again.

Open (or reopen) Hidamari and select bluefin-hidamari.webm under Local Video, then apply it to your display.

The Hidamari Flatpak manifest grants access to the Hidamari subfolder of your Videos directory. A copy is needed because the system background directory is outside that permission; a symlink to the original file will not work. No Flatpak permission override is needed.

To remove the movie from Hidamari, choose another wallpaper, then delete bluefin-hidamari.webm from that Videos subfolder. The system copy remains available if you want to use it again.

For render settings and regeneration instructions, see the Hidamari wallpaper maintainer guide.
