Well, you move it from var/mobile/media/MxTube to var/mobile/media/Skrew/Videos.

The problem I've found is that it's formatted incorrectly for the iPhone screen. So Ive been reconverting them using Videora with the proper formatting and it looks a lot better.

First time it had full audio of my daughter saying 'I am silly, very silly, very, very silly'. Funny. Then figured out how to strip the audio out or mute it or something just now

Yeah, Handbrake, Videora... anything we're using to get videos onto the phone work great for this app. You can change the aspect ratio and everything. I'm about to set up a video shoot of myself trying to get out of my iPhone. Gotta do it!

Cool. This app is gonna kill a lot of time for me. Maybe even force me to learn iMovie a little more. And they say there are no enterprise-ready apps for the iPhone

Use MxTube to search and download video loops. There are tons of them on Youtube (try "Blue Squares Loop" for example.... perfect for a background).

Use Mobilefinder to move them to the Skrew/Videos directory.

Bob's your uncle. They're usually pretty small, too.

I found out you don't even have to have the clip loop--the app does it for you!

So does this allow animated gif as a background wallpaper or something?

does anyone know of free windows software that will rotate a video 90 degrees so that the video takes up the whole screen? thanks

Not animated gif - video / movie files ...
