Since Extensions are frequently stored there, click the puzzle piece icon if the icon isn’t displayed next to your search bar. You can choose the “Pin” icon when this menu opens to ensure that your extensions are always visible. Since the PiP extension needs to be clicked on to be enabled, it is a good idea to pin it.
Turning the feature on is simple. All you need to do is add the ‘Picture-in-Picture Extension‘ to Chrome. I did try to get this working on Microsoft’s Edge browser as well, but the extension can’t be added.
Your mouse will reveal play/pause controls, a full-screen toggle, and an exit button when you move it over the new video window. The window will close when you click the exit button, pausing any playing content.
Picture-in-Picture (PiP) is one of the best features on any device, but unfortunately, there’s no catch-all app or operating system that makes this easy. That said, Google Chrome has an official extension that makes this a lot easier to use.
The purpose of this video window is to be small and out of the way, but it will always remain on top of your other windows.
How to Adjust the Picture in Picture Window?
When you activate picture-in-picture mode, your video will play in a small window. Additionally, you have the option to resize the video window. To increase or decrease the size of the PiP window, position your cursor on the window’s edge and drag it. Similar to that, you can put your cursor on the window and move it around your screen by dragging and dropping.
Additionally, the window allows you to pause and play your video. Simply select the pause/play or forward/backward button with your mouse while it is hovering over the window. From the website where your video is playing, you can carry out the remaining operations, like modifying the playback speed and volume.
A new Picture-in-Picture mode in Google’s Chrome web browser enables you to pop videos you’re watching outside the browser into a small overlay window. However, it’s still an experimental feature, so if you want to try it out, you must manually enable it as it is still in development.
You can use Google Chrome on Windows 10, Mac OS X, and Linux to watch videos outside of the browser by following the instructions in this guide.
