Suggestion: add Progress Bar and Next/Prev options to the PiP (Picture in Picture) in Edge browser
Suggestion: add Progress Bar and Next/Prev options to the PiP (Picture in Picture) in Edge browser
Here is a video of my side by side comparison of PiP in Edge Canary Version 83.0.461 and PiP in Windows 10 Movies & TV app which is the superior one.
Also allow to control that progress bar in PiP. use the same small minimal style from the app on Windows 10 but on mouse hover, the progress bar needs to get bigger and come Up so user can control it and click on it. Thanks.

for users reading this wondering how to turn on PiP in Edge, please refer to this topic:
HotCakeX We appreciate the illustrative video, it really helped demonstrate what you'd like to see. We'll pass this on to the media team.
(Features that are behind flags are typically still being developed,so it's possible that they're already doing more work on it, too.)Correction on 4/15: the team has confirmed that the feature is live in the builds, not behind a flag, and just requires two right clicks on a video. It’s also in the "… "if the site is using the built-in native video controls.

I really want this feature, just copy what firefox did pleaseHi, I'm just want to say that it's finally there. I actually don't know when it's exactly implemented because I haven't found any changelog related to it and I'm currently using the official build one, maybe anyone knows? I'm just curious since it's been a while since Firefox implemented it, but now that it's exist on Edge I might be using Edge more 🙂
Thank you Deleted
looking forward to the new changes coming 🙂
- You should make an issue here! 🙂 https://github.com/w3c/picture-in-picture
I know the Media Session API has previoustrack and nexttrack actions. They could be used in PiP user agents..- I'm requesting it as a suggestion from Microsoft Edge team, to make it available specifically for Edge browser. don't really care about other browsers. if you know how to help you can send feedback or write emails to Edge team
Microsoft Edge follows standards though. and WOW your attitude. the w3c exists. you're on a Chromium based browser and yet you don't care about other browsers? You don't care that Chrome has so much market share? You don't think standards are important? Websites can just block all browsers that aren't Chrome and you still don't care about other browsers and standards?
Edit: you do know why Microsoft adopted Chromium, right?
