This happens 100% of the times on my system. Didn't notice this behavior if gif is used as lock screen STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add gif as wallpaper 2. Select and apply gif as active wallpaper OBSERVED RESULT The vram usage increases until system crashes EXPECTED RESULT The vram usage should not increase infinitely until system crash SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux x86_64 (Linux 6.16.8-arch2-1) KDE Plasma Version: 6.4.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.18.0 Qt Version: 6.9.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION WM: KWin (Wayland) WM Theme: Breeze CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9700X (16) @ 5.58 GHz GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER [Discrete] Memory: 30.94 GiB Swap: 27.74 GiB Locale: en_US.UTF-8
Small addendum. You don't even need to apply the change, the gif just needs to be active in the wallpaper
