Turn OFF Picture-in-Picture using JavaScript
Yeah, it's a browser feature that isn't accessible to web properties. Firefox has implemented this feature autonomously, apart from the W3C working draft specification. Since the draft isn't a standard, Firefox opted not to adhere to it, whereas Chrome did. The script I shared earlier works across different browsers, at least in my experience. It simply hides the PiP icon in the Storyline video. Interestingly, I've noticed that the Storyline video PiP icon is no longer visible in Firefox. Is it just me?
I have noticed that I can hide the icon, but only temporarily; it can be overridden in FireFox. I know that MS did not have this option for quite a while. Don't know why they started up again with 508 such a huge deal these days. At least give us the option to disable it with code.
