For the past few days, my picture-in-picture that shows up for videos always just goes to fullscreen. I am unable to resize the video or have anything else up, it just becomes a full screen of whatever I chose which defeats the purpose, I feel, of this setting.

Please help.

Can you toggle Full Screen mode (Command+Shift+F) when the PiP window has focus ?

No, I'm not able to do that. When I click on the PiP option on a video, it automatically enters full screen mode. I tried hitting the Command+Shift+F keys and nothing is happening.

Also, this issue seems to be only occurring on my Mac. I was using my PC earlier today and the PiP option worked normally (the video appeared in a mini format).

Note that the bug fix for bug 1781830 has been approved for Firefox 103.0.2 and 104.0b5, so if those versions get released then your problem should be fixed. Note that this only happens when you launch the PiP player from a maximized window.
