Firefox Picture-in-Picture
Hi, Avinash.
I'm not aware of a way to globally disable the Picture-in-Picture option in Edge. Each user would need to right-click the icon and choose to disable it on their own browser.
If others in the community have found a workaround to this, I'm looking forward to their suggestions!
I am pretty late to the party in this discussion but I am also getting this in Edge and new versions of Chrome and a reviewer didn't like it (Doesn't bother me but people can get confused). A good workaround is to but a transparent shape over the video and you won't see it when you rollover the video. The only issue with that is that you can't start and stop the video by clicking on the video. But you can handle that with some variables if you want that. My videos are just playing in the timeline so that is not a problem.
I've tried adding a rectangle with no fill, adding a rectangle with white fill and 96% transparency.. and tried adding a hotspot over the top if the entire slide, and it is still showing the picture and picture icon upon publishing to review 360. Any other ideas on how to stop it?
The reason for wanting to stop it is because I have made a custom layer which is a countdown timer for the video, and when the user clicks picture in picture, then click 'CLOSE' on it, the video pauses, but the countdown timer keeps going down, so the timeline continues to go down but the video pauses. Surely there is a way to disable or hide it???
