VLC video on a window pinned to desktop.
Is it possible to play a video with VLC in a similar way as wallpaper mode, but in a window instead of fullscreen?

Re: VLC video on a window pinned to desktop.
Yes, but you'll need to be using "DirectX video output" (Tools > Preferences > (tab) Video > Output modules (check the "Advanced options" box) choose "DirectX video output" from the drop-list). While you're there, (tab) Output modules > DirectX > Enable wallpaper mode, save and restart VLC.
