Suspend OSDUIHelper instead of disabling launch agent?

[GameParrot]

It is possible to stop the system volume/brightness overlays by suspending OSDUIHelper. This could allow you to use the app without disabling SIP. To suspend the process in Swift, you could use

let task = Process()
task.executableURL = URL(fileURLWithPath: "/usr/bin/killall")
task.arguments = ["-STOP", "OSDUIHelper"]
try? task.run()

at the beginning of applicationDidFinishLaunching.

Oh, interesting. Does this work on newer versions of macOS, too?

Works on Monterey

Cool, that could actually be a great way to solve it. I'll look into it next month, after exam-phase 😢

Any update?

[AlexPerathoner]

Forgot about it, working on it these days. Will release an update before Thursday

[AlexPerathoner]

I've created a new branch. Could @AjayShanker-geek or @GameParrot please run it and confirm me if it's working newer versions?

Need sometime as currently my SIP is disabled because of yabai
