ah yeah we'll have captions. PiP is a bit out of scope. and I'll move the progress up once scrubbing is implemented (otherwise people will try and click on it and be disappointed)

The Doctor (Commissions open)I always thought PiP was just a browser feature than site. (At least on firefox I can do it for any video)
1 1Bossettit's a default-on setting - but for bsky (and similar apps where you expect a user doing multiple things), there's a surprising (well...) amount of nuance
1 1The Doctor (Commissions open)Makes sense. I think xitter also xitted it when scrolling through timeline.

Koren Lesthe Scrolls VI 🐾🐊I wonder if the PiP could already be available with Firefox, Opera & Vivaldi since all three embark a quite good PiP player that can work with pretty much every video player.
Would love to test :p
1 1Bossettyou have to choose to implement - developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W... - but it's not a tricky API, but like... in a timeline what do you do? Do you pause when scrolling, etc. etc.
2 4Samuelyeah problem comes when you scroll the original post out of view. things could get weird
1 3Bossettsomeone sends me a DM with an embedded vid, hit play, click PiP, back to main timeline (what happens?), see another video, press play on it (what happens to PiP?), etc. etc.
we should make apps that only do one thing at once
1 2Koren Lesthe Scrolls VI 🐾🐊I tried with Vivaldi's PiP on a YT video in a BSKY post and, as soon as the post disappeared, the PiP closed and the video stopped.
1Koren Lesthe Scrolls VI 🐾🐊I often use PiP when I'm writing or reading, even with shorter videos so my TL stays where it is with the video and I check other tabs.
1 1Bossett(there are some extensions that force it - chromewebstore.google.com/detail/force... - I don't use them anymore and they're a bit janky, but worked for the 'I just want an overlay and don't care about the app' scenario)
