Pro Tip: Keep your original boot video backed up somewhere safe. I learned the hard way that nostalgia hits hard, and you might want to switch back after the novelty wears off. Customizing is fun, but it's also reversible, thankfully!

Swapping out your Steam Deck boot video is like giving your device a personal touch! First, make sure you've got your new boot video ready. It needs to be in WebM format. Then, navigate to the Steam Deck's Settings > System, and turn on the 'Developer' mode. After that, you'll find a 'Startup Movies' folder in the 'steam' folder on your device. Drop your new boot video there, and voila! You've given your Steam Deck a fresh new look every time it boots up.
