Better Notification of active "Playing" TAB on video/music websites.

[Diuran]

I open many tabs with YouTube or other website with video/music. I really lost to find active-playing tab. I know there is text "now playing", but that's not enough with many tabs opened. Furthermore, I attach the file with screenshot and on that screenshot active playing tab is the last, but it took me time to realize which tab now is playing. I really wish to make playing button on the tab to be little bigger and easier to distinguish, maybe with different colour and make permanently visible on the tab.

It would be great too if the window with playing content would be marked in the list of opened windows with a "playing icon" as indicator.

Hi everybody !

Do in Nightly as in the stable FF version in regard to the active video tab indicator : add a speaker to the left ! OR, be creative and set that tab in a different color !!!

Best regards,

Active tab color

What about making the active tab a contrasting color? Especially when in dark mode, is very difficult to distinguish which one is the active tab, a problem exacerbated in monitors with poor viewing angles. The option to customize the color would be nice.

.tab-icon-overlay[soundplaying] {
opacity: 1 !important;
scale: 3;
list-style-image: url("Icons8_flat_speaker.svg") !important;
}
.tab-icon-overlay[muted] {
opacity: 1 !important;
scale: 3;

will be a goo idea to keep that icon sound always visible while is media on that tab, not hidden.
