Hello, I would like to report a bug regarding media detection in NotchNook. The “Media Source” parameter is correctly set to “System”, however NotchNook does not seem to detect media playback automatically when a video or audio starts playing. To make it work, I currently have to completely quit NotchNook and relaunch it while the media is already playing. Only then do the media information and playback controls appear correctly in the NotchNook bar. It seems that the media session is only detected at application startup and not dynamically during runtime. Thank you. (macOS Tahoe 26.5)
