Description Quinten Kock 2024-04-17 03:38:14 UTC

SUMMARY
The seekbar in the media player applet stops updating sometimes. It doesn't seem related to the player (Elisa) having issues, since the seekbar on my phone (KDE Connect) is fine.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. ??
2. ??
3. ??

OBSERVED RESULT
Seekbar in media player applet is stuck on a specific time (e.g. 2:23) and is only updated when moved within the applet, or changing track.

EXPECTED RESULT
Seekbar in media player follows the playing media and is affected by seeks from other sources.

Cannot reproduce on current git master. Is it still reproducible for you in Plasma 6.1.4 or later?

IIRC There have also been some changes in master that affect this so it might also be fixed in the upcoming Plasma 6.2.

I'm currently experiencing this bug on 6.1.4 :(

Still no reliable reproducer though, so determining if it's present is pretty challenging to say the least.

I also saw it sometimes. I suspect it's a Qt bug.
