midiman is on a distinguished road
Default video plays on 1/4 of screen

Hi, I have tried a few programs that play video files as my desktop background. What happens is when the first video plays it is fullscreen as normal, but when the second video plays (and all of them after that) the video shrinks to about 1/4th of the screen (you can see it in the screenshot). These videos are in Windows Media Video format (.wmv) and I tried AVI (they play for about one second and then skip to the next one) and MPEG. The programs I have tried are Magic Desktop wallpaper and Desktop Magician. Also, I have tried the videos on another computer and it does the same thing.

Thank for any help.

I would say this is not a problem with the vids but the software.
