What is the picture-in-picture feature for my video in My Media in Canvas?

Updated on

You may watch videos in a floating Picture in Picture (PiP) window which is always on top of other windows, even if the tab is switched. This feature allows users to continue consuming media while they interact with other content sites.

The Picture in Picture feature also works when a user scrolls down on a webpage past the video they are watching. For example, a user may continue watching a video while continuing to scroll through news articles or could switch to their email or text messaging app and respond to an email or text message, without having to pause the video.

Videos uploaded to your My Media and Media Gallery have automatically been updated to the new video player featuring the Picture-In-Picture feature. Videos embedded before March 11, 2024 will need to be re-embedded where they are located for the Picture-In-Picture feature to appear for viewers.
