# Publish Your First Video Wallpaper

In this tutorial you'll upload a single video file and publish it as a fullscreen looping wallpaper.

## What you need

- A video file (`.mp4` or `.webm`)
- The [Fluxlay desktop app](/en/studio/creator/how-to/setup/install-app.md)
- A Fluxlay account

> Videos play **muted, looped, and autoplaying** — no audio is bundled. Re-encode to 1080p or lower before uploading to keep file sizes reasonable.

## 1. Open the app and sign in

Open the settings window. Click **Sign in** if you aren't already signed in.

## 2. Open the upload screen

In the settings sidebar, choose **Upload**. Leave the tab on **New wallpaper**.
