Maybe try, uninstall Deskscape, reboot immediately (important), download latest version available in your account product download page: https://store.stardock.com/myaccount/products. Install it, reboot immediately again.

If you have not yet, try changing these setting first.

I have one hybrid dream working. Seems like all hybrids work. Only hybrids.

It's funny but I just downloaded and ran ( with no issues ) my very first dream made 18 years ago 2007 , and it works fine . I run Deskscapes as is no tweeks along with K Lite Mega ( not sure I need it but have always had it installed ) latest version and all works fine ..... might be your video card causing your issue try an update or tweek on your card , see if that works ..

It is a high end card, and fully updated. I'm sure it's my system, but was hoping someone knew the answer.

I fixed it!! I downloaded all the C++ redistributibles, the Windows Media Pack, and reset my graphics settings to normal. All is well.

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. Not sure which codec, but I downloaded K-Lite codec pack, installed it and dreams seem to work for me.
Thank you
