I’m not sure it only happen in Youtube or not.
We open picture-in picture mode to hover some video on our screen but do not want their detail How can this issue be reproduced?
@slitchaser can you share a short recording of what it looks like on your end when you go from watching a video normally in Brave and then setting it to display in PIP mode
However, if I use the browser option that appears in the Media icon, that appears on the upper right part of the browser, it opens up a menu like below. From there you can click on the Picture-In-Picture button:
@Saoiray great catch, I honestly forgot that was even an option. Typically when I enter PIP mode I just double right-click and select Picture in Picture mode from the context menu.
@slitchaser does this make sense/resolve the issue for you?
@kashan_devworks that’s not true at all. I’m on Windows 11. Said they and I are using the same operating system but having different outcomes. So there’s something else at play
@slitchaser interesting. I’m wondering if one of your extensions might be causing the difference? If you tried it in a private window or in a new browser profile does it do the same thing?
It has to be an extension or something because I there isn’t any way to specify this behavior in YT settings (or the browser). I am seeing the same behavior as @Saoiray. The view that you’re seeing @slitchaser is the view you get when you launch the mini-player. It’s the only way I can get the PIP to display that bottom info bar – enabling PIP any other way shows the PIP player without the bar as expected.
Seems like the PIP window is “stuck” in that view for you somehow. Have you tried testing this in a fresh/guest profile (Menu --> More tools -- Guest profile) to see if the YT PIP displays the same way?
