Well, thanks for the info, it really worked but I can see another bug: After all the procedure I can see at contextual menu (right click) that the feature Next desktop background is still running. So when I drag the mouse pointer through the desktop it shows up the background wallpaper.
Could you tell me what can I do about it?
Thanks.

TEMPORARY INVISIBLE TEXT FIX…WORKS AFTER RESTART:
-right click a video and set to desktop background
-set folder options to show hidden files
-go to…
C:\Users\#username#\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows DreamScene
-there should be 2 image files of the dreamscene running (1 hidden/greyed)
-set both files to “read only” & uncheck “hidden”
-right click desktop > personalise > desktop background
-under windows dreamscene, you should see both image files
-make sure both are checked by clicking check boxes next to them
-set Picture position: Fill
-save changes
NOTE: You can now set any dreamscene without text bug, however if you dont
do the above procedure everytime you set a different video, you will briefly see the
image of the first video you set at windows startup…therefore just delete both images
that was set to “read only” and start procedure again on new video.
Hope this helps
