# Live Lock Screen

A GNOME Shell extension that lets you set any video/GIF as your lock screen background.

> ⚠️ On recent NVIDIA drivers, prolonged lock sessions may trigger a kernel-side memory leak that can lead to system-wide OOM events or crashes. This appears to be a driver issue rather than a bug in the extension.

> ⚠️ If you are having issues with current version you may check out legacy branch however it is highly recommended to stick with new versions for better performance.

## Design Philosophy

> "Do one thing and do it well."  
> — Unix philosophy

This extension focuses on a single goal: playing multimedia on the lock screen.

It is designed to be simple, lightweight, and reliable.

If you're looking for more advanced lock screen or desktop customization, you may want to explore alternative extensions or check out some forks of this project.

- 🔲 Transparent video support (RGBA)

- 🌌 Configurable fade-in animation
- 🖥️ Multi-monitor support

## Known Issues

- Possible audio and video desync after suspend/wake
- Possible clicking/crackling sounds when pausing/playing video with audio
- Video positioning issues when connecting/disconnecting monitors with lock screen on
