(Feature Request) : Picture in Picture mode & sidebar
Hi MohamedxSalah, thank you for reaching out to us. I have some good news for your first ask: it is already in Microsoft Edge. If you right click on an HTML5 video, you will get the following context menu:
You can select Picture in picture and the video will continue playing in a small window in the lower corner of your screen. You can drag and resize this window to get it to the size and spot that works best for you.
For the second suggestion, I will bring it back to the product team that owns this feature for consideration.

Elliot Kirk i know that edge as most chromium based browsers have native PIP support
but as i mentioned this is the basic picture in picture that google makes , that doesn't have a video controls on them they just have pause button
what i'm asking for is something like opera's picture in picture
where the pop up windows does have a video lapse on them so you can go forward in the video or backward withing the video it self and does have all the controls you would find on a typical youtube video player
so basically the idea is you know how the youtube video player looks like ? take this and make it a pop out picture in picture
