The HTMLVideoElement
method requestPictureInPicture()
issues an asynchronous request to display the video in picture-in-picture mode.
It's not guaranteed that the video will be put into picture-in-picture. If permission to enter that mode is granted, the returned Promise
will resolve and the video will receive a enterpictureinpicture
event to let it know that it's now in picture-in-picture.
requestPictureInPicture()
A Promise
that will resolve to a PictureInPictureWindow
object. that can be used to listen when a user will resize that floating window.
This example requests that the video enters Picture-in-Picture mode, and sets an event listener to handle the floating window resizing.
function enterPictureInPicture() {
videoElement.requestPictureInPicture()
.then(pictureInPictureWindow => {
pictureInPictureWindow.addEventListener("resize", () => onPipWindowResize(), false);
})
}
