Oh, please, jeebus. Main reason to keep Firefox around. Why does webkit have this default setting? What's the point?

Edit: for seo Picture-in-picture, picture in picture orion. Added controls would be nice too, a la Firefox. Modifying pop out player wouldnt count as modifying website looks...

        Really the only feature I miss from my browser on windows. I would like to put the pip window anywhere on the screen and not just have it snap to the 4 corners.

          Merged 5 posts from PiP snap and resize.

            PIP should be able to be placed anywhere as opposed to only the corners your display. This singular issue makes me want to stop using Orion

                Many browsers have fastforward and rewind 5/10 seconds controls on the hover state over the Picture-in-Picture playing video (Firefox, Zen, Safari, Arc). Orion mobile does (I guess native PiP controls in iOS), but the desktop lacks this.

                    BTW, hold cmd and drag the pip window allows you to place the pip window anywhere.

                      To summarize this thread:

                      main requests:

                      • show captions/subtitles
                      • forward/backwards 15 seconds
                      • timeline scrubber
                      • drag pip window anywhere by default, and snap to corners when cmd is held

                      resolved:

                      • x should not go back to original tab, but just close pip window
                      • laggy resizing

                      eirk Thank you for this tip. Wish it was this way by default!

                        The Video Pop-out player should have video controls similar to Arc. This is one of the features I use a lot on Arc, I was super happy when Automatic Pop-out was added to Orion, this would just seal the deal.

                          I really like the idea of adding trackpad gesture support to the PiP (Picture-in-Picture) view. The proposed gestures seem intuitive and would indeed enhance the experience for trackpad users. Here's how I imagine the implementation could work:

                          Proposed Gestures:

                          • Swipe Up: Moves the Mini-Player up.
                          • Swipe Left: Moves the Mini-Player to the left.
                          • Swipe Right: Moves the Mini-Player to the right.
                          • Swipe Down: Moves the Mini-Player down.
                          • Pinch-In: Shrinks the PiP window.
                          • Pinch-Out: Enlarges the PiP window.

                          Additional UX Enhancements:

                          • Cursor Behavior: Hiding the macOS cursor during gestures is a great touch. Restoring the cursor near the PiP window’s new position creates a cohesive mental model of the PiP being "detached" from traditional macOS windows, making it feel more dynamic and unique.
                          • Target Audience: This would especially resonate with Mac users who heavily rely on trackpad gestures, adding a sense of control and delight that's distinct from a typical PiP experience.

                          The Arc browser already offers this functionality. And so I believe it is a good feature (as they pour millions of dollars into designing that browser). Also, It aligns perfectly with the kind of smooth, trackpad-driven workflows that Mac users enjoy. Adding this will imrpove the PiP experience for the users who use Trackpad.

                          PS: Considering a toggle in settings for those who might prefer traditional PiP interactions.

                              Three more things I'd love to see from PiP:

                              • resize to bigger windows - currently PiP window doesn't go bigger than 25% of screen
                              • double click on the PiP window, switches it to full screen (like with Firefox PiP)
                              • multiple PiP windows

                                mojolobo multiple PiP windows is such a killer Firefox feature. would love if Orion would implement that as well
