I actually really like this feature when playing music for a whole room on my OLED TV. People like watching the fancy graphics and I get to dodge a tiny little bit of burn in.

You missed the part of better alternatives. I didn't mean to turn off the anim, just switch it to a more efficient method of doing it.

What are the better alternatives?

I'm guessing pre-rendered animations. Better alternative if you're optimizing for performance, but maybe not if we're optimizing for other metrics.

It might be cool.

It might be cool to needlessly spin up a CPU/GPU for no reason other than not being familiar with a more effectient method of doing something? I don't know where you come from, but that's not my definition of cool at all
