When I encounter an embedded video on a website that plays, an icon to toggle picture in picture pops up in the URL bar (see attached image). I don't use picture in picture, and for some websites which have an "endless scrolling" experience with videos, such as reddit or facebook, it is slightly annoying that while I am focusing the middle of the screen, something changes in the top right, making me think a tab has an update and changed title. I have the picture in picture controls turned off in settings (one with the id=pictureInPictureToggleEnabled in general, my Firefox is not English), I thought it would also make said button go away but it does not.

Hello Picture-in-Picture in Firefox https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/about-picture-picture-firefox Enable picture-in-picture video controls, that's the preference, about:config. media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.video-toggle.enabled Is it this other subject. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1530752 Try. 1 - Go to configuration editor https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/about-config-editor-firefox 2 - Enter a search term media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enable-when-switching-tabs.enabled

Based on your guidance, i found this setting in about:config: media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.urlbar-button.enabled this makes the button from the urlbar go away if i set this to false.
