I had a video playing in picture-in-picture and I accidentally resized it horizontally, so now it has 2 massive black boxes on either side of the video and now, as is supposed to happen, I can only resize it keeping the aspect ratio, but due to this accident, it forces an incorrect aspect ratio. Is it possible to reset the configuration of the picture-in picture function to the default size?

Thank you in advance

If you close the PiP window and open a video in PiP that has different dimensions then Firefox should automatically adjust the PiP window to fit. Only if you open a video with the same dimensions then Firefox remembers the last used dimensions if you adjust the window.
