Calling all D-List celebs: Here’s the tool you’ve been waiting for

@franker: You gotta think out of the box. Clone the tab then set periodic reload on the first tab to 1 minute and after half a minute you set the reload on the clone.

@luetage Maybe they are more Harrison Ford than Rutger Hauer?

This is the problem.
This is how the bar is visible:
Oh, you can't see it anymore:
I have included:
With some colors, the strip merges and is not visible. -
@luetage men you are genius, thanx

Is this restricted to one tab? I have one pinned tab with periodic reload and also a tab stack where i wanted both tiled tabs to be refreshed at the same time but as soon as i activate it on the tabs its inactivated (or the countdown dissapears) on the pinned one.
Edit: Nope, the progress bar just didn't show initially. I have this avatar for a reason

@kassman Everything works for me, but with certain colors the stripes are not visible.

(...) In my case the periodic reloader doesn't work with less than 1 minute, even when I write in the Quick Commands "Periodic Reload 30" (...)
If you really need times in the seconds range: https://quhno.vivaldi.net/2019/06/09/auto-reload-extension-for-vivaldi/
but most of the times it does not make much sense hammering the servers in intervals less than a minute ... -

@QuHno I think this should be up to the user. I've had cases where this was very much "necessary" for me, and I've barely every used a reload period in O12 of more than 30s, but there were times when I used this feature quite regularly.
Think of this case: you know that concert tickets become available at a certain point and you do not want to miss it. You'd either have to press reload manually, or reload automatically every 1 to 5 seconds or so.
So I on the contrary cannot think of many usecases where I'd need a periodic reload for a longer time frame, since then the site would not be in focus all the time anyway (i.e. would be some background tab, possibly a split tab). It's probably good for static websites that one wants to show on a display and such. But for receiving new content, I'd typically just use feeds instead.

Can a sound be assigned when there are changes?

No need to explain.
I did not write the extension for fun, but because in some special cases I needed shorter times too. That's why I wrote "most of the times" and posted a link to a possible solution, not "you don't need it"One caveat for he extension: It permanently needs a little bit of processing power (<1%) because it unloads only if the last timer of the Extension is stopped and the popup is closed.

@Catweazle I don't think so, but yes, some notification in case that the content changes would be great for sure. I don't think that it's as easy to implement, though. Checking a header for
Last-Modified
date would not work on most pages (not to mention that if it was not modified, a full reload was probably not requried in the first place). -
I don't think this works on full screen.
