Tried the PiP mode with YouTube and it didn't work for me. The video pop-up still appears even after un-checking the box in settings; once I click the X button on the pop-up, the video pauses, and will unpause only if I return to the original tab and press play. I've tried the following:

- Restarting my computer - Used keyboard shortcuts to close the pop-up - Blocked autoplay media on the YouTube website

Thanks in advance.

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!!!!

Hello

Maybe

Have you checked Firefox Labs

Picture-in-Picture: auto-open on tab switch

Below, screenshot, an subject.

Take a look at the preference, media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enable-when-switching-tabs.enabled

1 - Go to Configuration Editor for Firefox 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

Thanks, but I said I don't want to use about:config and wonder why unchecking the settings button does not work.

Hello

Your subject https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1536055

Firefox Labs Picture-in-Picture: auto-open on tab switch Enable Picture-in-Picture on active videos when switching tabs.

That's, media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enable-when-switching-tabs.enabled

Is it your question.

Have you checked, the preference, media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enable-when-switching-tabs.enabled.
