The disabled feature still has a picture in the picture when unchecked.
The disabled feature still has a picture in the picture when unchecked. How do I stop picture-in-picture for videos playing in Firefox? Yes, went into settings and unchecked picture in picture, yes, the problem still exists.
Chosen solution
SOLUTION: open new tab, enter about:config enter "media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enable-when-switching-tabs.enabled" and toggle to FALSE
media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enable-when-switching-tabs.enabled = FALSE
Mine was media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enable-when-switching-tabs.enabled = TRUE, and I have no clue why it was stuck. But that fixed it. THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!!

That's unlikely. Can you attach a screenshot?
