OK, just realised that Background plus is not present in the Ultimate package like before. However, don't despare (and even Core users can benefit from this) - Komorebi:

Obviously I can't upload moving wallpapers but here is a snippet of one provided by Komorebi - get it from here:

https://github.com/cheesecakeufo/komorebi/releases - you need the komorebi-2.1-64-bit.deb file and use Gdebi Package manager to install it - have fun!

Only downside is that 'Home' does not want to be shown so possible conflict here. And icons cannot be moved only opened.

What wasn't clear is that you have to create a thumb nail from the video you want as moving wallpaper in the same folder. To do this I edited the video in KDEnlive and extracted a frame to create thumb.png.

Enjoy! ;) :D
