Description
Concise Description
Hi everyone, is it possible to disable the dot on the video progress bar?
It always stays stuck, it unlocks only when I move the mouse over the video and it advances to the minutes of the video.
If I don't move the mouse arrow, that dot stays stuck in a fixed place :(
is it possible to solve it?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue on a YouTube video: move the mouse away from the video and observe the progress-bar dot while playback continues. Identify the video-player progress-bar entry point responsible for the dot, then verify that the dot updates correctly without mouse movement and remains consistent with the current playback position.
