# Import Custom Wallpapers on Mac

Bring your own video loops into MacWall: personal clips, AI-generated motion, or downloads from any source, all with native hardware-decoded playback.

Closed catalogs limit creativity. **MacWall** combines a community catalog with unlimited personal imports, drag any compatible video into your Library and set it instantly.

## Where to find clips

- Film your own timelapses or nature scenes
- Export motion graphics from After Effects or DaVinci Resolve
- Download royalty-free loops from stock sites
- Browse the MacWall community catalog for inspiration

## Organize your Library

Favorites, playlists (Pro), and per-display assignments keep large libraries manageable. Switch wallpapers from Home or the menu bar without re-importing.
