I was wondering if while playing a video, is there a way to full screen to the size of the browser window instead of to the full screen of the display device? A lot of the time i want to have multiple windows open and play a tv show or movie in the browser windows while I perform other tasks in other applications. But I would like the tv show or movie to use the entire screen of the browser window as if it was in fullscreen mode but limited to only the size of the browser window and not the entire display device.

If the player has support for Picture-in-Picture, you can resize the player to any dimension and position by dragging the bottom right corner.

Otherwise you can only have size of the player like supported by this website.
