This is mostly a problem in the what are you listening to thread, if I’m checking out videos and then pause one and move on to the next, when I scroll up or down on that bar thing to get to new “pages” (even though its just continuous but you get what I’m saying) it will resume every single paused video.
AI-generated summary
A bug is reported where paused videos resume when scrolling through pages, particularly in the “what are you listening to” thread. companyhen describes the issue, and codinghorror is able to reproduce it. However, eviltrout cannot reproduce the issue. sam mentions that fixing this bug would require special handling and notes that it has been discussed before, with gerhard linking to a relevant meta discussion. sam ultimately closes the topic, citing the significant engineering time already spent on the issue without a resolution.

I think we would need some special magical handling in the uncloaker here @eviltrout if we were to fix this

I can’t seem to reproduce this one. If I visit that topic, pause a video, then scroll either via the scroll bar (or the topic timeline on the right) it stays paused.

I can repro. Start a video, pause, then scroll up to load more of the topic. It is definitely annoying.

I thought @eviltrout determined that the fix to this was extra complicated in another topic?
Do you mean this?

We have easily spent a week of engineering on this annoying bug and still can not resolve it.
