Hi,

I'm having a few problems with your new and great Picture-in-Picture (PiP) feature on my Linux OS in particular.

1. (Linux) When I invoke PiP, the detached window appears as normal but then starts to shrink rapidly. However, if I am fast enough, I can stop this by moving the detached window. If not, I am left with a thumbnail size window that leads me to point 2...

2. (Linux) ...I am unable to resize the detached window. On moving a mouse pointer across the window at no location am I able to find a window edge to adjust the size of the window.

3. (Linux and Windows 10) On shutting down the web page responsible for the detached window, both audio and video can continue for as long as 30 seconds. But, it does shut down eventually.

Apart from that all seems OK.

System... Linux Kubuntu 18.04 LTS and fully updated 64 bit Graphics nVidia 2080 Windows 10 fully updated 64 bit 32 GB RAM CPU Intel i9-9900K @3.6GHz

Hi, we're aware of at least the first problem - that is bug 1600414 and it looks like its just been fixed, so it'll probably get into one of the next couple of versions.

I suspect the second problem is related to the first.

I'll ask about the third problem.
