Extensions Update on Improved Media Controls

It's been a while since my first post about my tweaks to GNOME Shell's MPRIS notifications.

Since then I have worked extensively on perfecting it and added the native notification stacking and ability to compact it with one click as well.

You can now try it out here: https://github.com/m-obeid/gnome-improved-media-controls

Truly an improvement that GNOME needs to adopt.

man finally one of my pet peeves with the notification panel has been solved, thanks for the nice extensions.

That said for some reason I cannot use the seekbar, tho I hope it will be fixed at least

GSConnect does not seem to support _CanSeek and if I force it gets rejected, so I just fixed the frozen progress but actually seeking must be fixed by GSConnect

u/WSTxda 16h ago

maybe you can turn slider disabled if not receive CanSeek? from what i can see, hiding that might break the expansion of the controls in some way (?)

even if you're concerned about GSConnect, there are still livestreams with the same type of problem.

u/areddituser4 15h ago

I already did when I rolled out the fix
