Used player would also be valueable information.
And have you tried different players ?

@Sandeep-kumaresan Does it happen with scroll labels turned off?

@Sandeep-kumaresan Does it happen with scroll labels turned off?

I faced the same issue as described and for me disabling scroll labels didn't do anything and the problem is still noticeable. I also tried disabling the whole label or even all of the buttons and still nothing changed.

I'm using Chromium with Spotify/Soundcloud as the player and on mine setup the lag is not that big (~100ms?). My DE is also Gnome but on pure Arch Linux.

Gnome 46-47
running a YouTube video in Google Chrome, with the extension enabled,
scroll labels turned off, then closing the tab, my mouse hangs for 1-2 seconds ,
turning off the extension everything is smooth. funny thing is it was not happening 2 days ago,
(in gnome 46 it wasn't always happening too)
also happens when closing a video file played by SMplayer for ex.

attached are a showcase of that happening (as best I can) willing to provide any info needed too..
Thanks for a great extension
