Firefox for Android Community Forum

I have an issue with picture in picture. Every time I'm watching a video in full screen on m.youtube.com and I want it in picture in picture mode, I press the home button, and it pauses the video whilst also going out of Fullscreen mode. This happens on a Google pixel 9 running android 15 with Firefox version 136.0.2 and on a Google pixel 3xl running android 12 with Firefox version 136.0.2. And on a Samsung s21 running android 14 with Firefox version 134.0.2 (I down graded to fix an audio issue) all of these have the same picture in picture problem How do I fix this?

Its only happening with youtube. it zooms into the wrong section of the screen and not the video

Ive tried restarting my phone, making a new tab, reloading the tab, exitting firefox and then going back in and turning off extentions but nothing works.

This just started today

Previously, picture in picture worked as intended, with hitting the home button playing my videos no problem. Now, at least on YouTube, it displays the box where the video should be playing but instead of playing, it just shows the top of the web page. The video does not play, it remains paused no matter what you do. It doesn't seem to affect every website, as I tested it with the iMDB video player and that worked without a hitch. It makes YouTube unusable in picture in picture. This started a few days ago, and no matter what I try, I have been unable to resolve it. I've included an image of what the issue looks like over a game, but it looks like that no matter which app you're in.

Along with comments no longer loading when using youtube, picture in picture no longer works. Ive already informed you of the comment section and still not fixed. Is there a way to roll back versions of Firefox to a version that isn't broken?

This is a recent problem. I normally watch YouTube while I play games on my phone by splitting the screen. Recently YouTube has been unable to play videos on the smallest window size. This was possible a week ago. I have attached an image of the size at which this occurs. This is a problem large enough that I will no longer be using the browser if it continues. Half and half screen size still works, however it doesn't work for my purpose.

Dear all,

Since the last update the on top YouTube videos are not playing anymore. When open YouTube video full screen with browser, then clicking on home button. It opens on top video. But this video is not playing. Could you please fix it? Regards

I have a continuous problem when using the Picture in picture mode on an android phone. When enabling Picture in picture the video turns to this (see picture) and won't play it anymore. For the last 2-3 days I haven't been able to use the mode, please help.

I've been using firefox for a few months now to use ublock origin when watching YouTube. Yesterday I was watching a video and went to open another app on my phone when the PIP stopped playing the video. It appears that the PIP tries to open in full screen (it has the popup stating to drag from top or press back to exit when picture in picture starts) and stops playing. If I go back to the video I can play it normally but essentially picture in picture is not working. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling, I tried disabling all extensions, I cleared my browsing history, and I searched to see if anyone had a similar issue. Any tips would be appreciated. I've attached a picture of what the picture in picture looks like in case that helps.
