Description

Environment:

  • OS: macOS 14.6.1
  • IceCubesApp version: 1.10.50

Description

This is a really picky and minor thing, but a video in a post triggers my Mac’s TouchBar to show a scrubber that constantly animates as the video loops. This is just super distracting, and I would guess that next to no-one wants to scrub through a meme gif in a social media app.

Can it be disabled?

Research direction

Start by locating the macOS video playback and Touch Bar integration in IceCubesApp, then reproduce the issue with a looping video on macOS 14.6.1 using version 1.10.50 or the current build. Done means videos no longer cause a continuously animated Touch Bar scrubber while playback continues normally.
