Picture in Picture

The video leaves the page for a small window above every other app and keeps playing. The page stays an ordinary tab.

While the window is on screen you can switch tabs, fold the group or change profile: the player stays where it was and keeps playing. A tab with such a video is not unloaded from memory, however many others are open.

What to expect

  • The menu item is never greyed out: only the page knows whether it has a video. Where there is none, nothing happens.
  • If a site has taken ⌥⇧P for itself, the shortcut stays with the site; in a text field it types its own character (keys).
  • The system remembers the window’s position and size, the same for every app. It cannot be tied to the Savoia window: the system draws the player.
