Video player toggle
Buddy-Wolf
It would be good to add the possibility to disable video players in the world.
I often join words with video players that can't be disabled and often end by muting the world. Doing so I will mute all sounds coming from the world, while I'm intrested to disable only the player.

I would like to see this as a possible toggle for the client.
Certain worlds (like this one wrld_fc7f13ba-6f93-4ace-81e4-27533b3489bb) don't back off when the client cannot play certain videos/twitch streams, retrying every 10-20 seconds causing major lag-spikes through the entire gameplay for as long as you're in the world.
Notably, the world in question has been endlessly caused problems for thousands of players and not the world creators for some reason? making it impossible for them to repro the issue (or ignored it?)
I had to create a custom yt-dlp setup to get the video player to play random content regardless of the requested content, that is known to work on the video player just to have the game to be remotely enjoyable. yes that's a security issue but it's a tradeoff I was willing to put off in the last week.
The toggle in question should outright disable the video player, not calling the yt-dlp.exe, keeping any and all video player objects inactive, and would especially benefit some players whom don't have high end hardware for performance.

Having the idea to stop all streaming audio and video locally would be a good way to help improve performance on lower-end machines that are struggling in high-stress instance.
