Enhanced Floating Video Player (PIP) Extension

Picture-In-Picture is a Chromium feature, which allows to drag your video over other desktop windows, allowing you full flexibility and productivity.

Very helpful for people with one monitor, or if you need to do something while watching a tutorial, livestreams, movies, etc.

### How To ###

There are 2 ways:

First way: On YouTube, Netflix and Twitch, there will be a \"PIP\" button in the media player bar when hovering on it. This button will allow you to watch content on top of other windows.

Second way: Simply click on the extension icon at the top right of your browser. It will by default select the first available video on your current page.

### The Future ###

We plan on integrating the PIP button for many other sites. For now, sites with the PIP buttons are (but not limited to, if you use the extension icon), YouTube, Netflix and Twitch. The extension and user interface is subject to change, however, not the functionalities.

### Troubleshooting ###

Might not work on Chrome 70 versions or lower. Try updating your browser.

Haugaherr Belgborinn (ID: 0000008dd914fcff) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 01/11/2023 nie działa

Paul Newman (ID: 000000445b82527a) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 12/20/2022 Worse than chrome/googles. You can at least juggle through video selection in chrome by clicking the extension and you're not required to be on the particular tab you're wanting to view the video/PIP with. Offers zero video control(volume/forward/backward/ETC) outside of play/pause/close/back to tab. Even the sizing is the exact same as chrome. Don't bother. The people that like this extension seem to be unaware that there's ALREADY one currently built into chrome that offers some extras.

3VET (ID: 000000243e22e648) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/13/2022 Looks to work without issue. Would appreciate some controls for the time in video itself, and not just playlists like Firefox's built in player, and it doesn't go to the top of the page when I go back to the tab. Other than that, works as advertised. Good job.

Tolga Girgin (ID: 000000b4b5ade4fe) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 09/18/2022 Same as chrome internal floating player and works only some popular video sites.
