Feature Request: Miniplayer with video playback

[Krazy303]

so i was playing some music videos and i got an idea for what if we add a tiny video player above the Media Controls and see video

An example made using Picture in Picture

I like this idea a lot. I hope the devs can implement this.

[Krazy303]

i didn't liked media controls that very much but if devs implement this i would use it

[ParlDev]

This is a cool idea. Maybe make it an arrow above the media controls that you can open?

[Krazy303]

I Actually thought about the sme thing

[ParlDev]

Bringing this back:
Instead of opening a Picture in Picture (PIP) video player everytime you leave the "playing tab", why don't we do this instead?
This would be so much simpler for the user to use and understand. The automatic PIP video player as default added in 1.11.4 is kinda annoying imo and opens on the content I am trying to read or work on, so this would be a great feature, especially right now.

We neeed thisss but the discussion is moved wayyy below because of low discussion

[germanocorrea]

I was going to create a new discussion suggesting this exact behavior. Picture-in-picture is great when you are using different applications, but when I'm just browsing the web, it can get quite annoying by blocking important stuff (like something in the web page itself, or the tabs if I leave it on top of the sidebar).

Being able to just attach the video player in Zen's current media player would be awesome.

Yeah it definitely would
