Not related, it converts whatever you open to jpeg. I know this only because it's exactly what happens when you apply a wallpaper. Same compression. When you apply the wallpaper as a PNG in ifanview it makes a copy of the image somewhere in windows to avoid compression, but if you save the theme as a name and reapply it the PNG is converted to a jpeg.

It's google-able. http://www.eightforums.com/customization/5399-windows-degrades-desktop-background-images.html in that thread the problem was fixed on the second page by applying the image as a background though firefox, another used faststone(?). irfanview also works.

I can only assume the photoview does this because it's easier to zoom in and out with a compressed image, no idea why it does it for backgrounds.

The compression is not driver related. It's been that way forever now. In case you missed it I edited my post with example images, take a look.

EDIT:
MS photoviewer
Ifanview

The UI problem really is not worth fixing because of that IMHO. Use a better image viewer.
I means the bug that shown by upload to YouTube.

Anyways, thank for the information.
