Picture-in-Picture (built-in) not working.

more options

Using: Firefox v132.0.2 (64-bit) for Linux (Arch Linux)

Picture-in-Picture (built-in) not working correctly. Consider attached image e.g., the video is visible, but I can't really use the any of the other tabs visible here. What I noted: I can scroll the other tab/window using mouse wheel when the Picture-in-Picture is in focus, but as soon as I click on any of the other tabs/window, the video goes to background, and hence becomes "invisible".

Wayland. I did find the same bug [here on bugzilla](https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1923568). Followed it.

Yes, similar issues. Cannot move the PiP out of the browser window and when switching tabs it's no longer visible. You can mark this as resolved because it will not get fixed here. Let chime in on that bug.

Okay.

Couldn't find "mark as solved" button here, used the one available in the mail.
