How to Use Picture in Picture Mode in Brave Browser
|
||
======
|
||
|
||
Brave is an excellent Chrome-like and yet [Chrome alternative web browser][1].
|
||
|
||
[Firefox and Brave][2] are two browsers I like using on my Linux system. Both have different advantages.
|
||
|
||
There is one thing that Firefox does better than Brave and it is the picture-in-picture (PIP) mode that works on YouTube, Netflix and most streaming sites.
|
||
|
||
Brave too has picture-in-picture mode but it’s so hidden that you feel like there is no PIP support at all.
|
||
|
||
The built-in picture-in-picture works on some websites (like YouTube) but may not work on others (like Prime Video). Worry not! you can use a dedicated extension for that.
|
||
|
||
Let me show both methods in this tutorial.
|
||
|
||
### Method 1: Use double right click on the video
|
||
|
||
**The trick is to do two right clicks one after another and you should see the option Picture in Picture mode.**
|
||
|
||
Let me show this by an example. Play a YouTube video in Brave. Now right-click on the video. You
|
||
|
||
![Move the cursor slightly away from the context menu after the first right click][3]
|
||
|
||
Do another right click. It should be on the video but not on the previous context menu. Just someplace else on the video.
|
||
|
||
Now you should see another context menu with the Picture in picture option.
|
||
|
||
![You should see the Picture in picture option in the second right click][4]
|
||
|
||
Select the Picture in picture and the video will pop out in its own window. You can move it anywhere in the browser.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
You can also keep it playing anywhere on the screen while you use some other application.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
You can resize the pop-up window as per your liking in the recent Brave versions.
|
||
|
||
I don’t understand why Brave has it hidden like this. Why not give it prominence?
|
||
|
||
Anyway, this works on websites like YouTube but may not work on Prime videos. If you want that, you can install an extension.
|
||
|
||
### Method 2: Use Picture-in-Picture extension
|
||
|
||
There is an official plugin from Google that allows you to get the Picture-in-Picture feature in Google Chrome. Since Brave is based on Chromium, you can use the same extension in Brave.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
Go to the extension page and **hit the Add to Brave button**.
|
||
|
||
![Add Picture-in-Picture Extension to Brave][8]
|
||
|
||
When you click on that, it gives you the option to add the extension.
|
||
|
||
![Add the extension][9]
|
||
|
||
Once you have added the extension, you should see it in the top right corner of the browser.
|
||
|
||
![Using Picture in Picture Extension][10]
|
||
|
||
When you are playing a video, click on the extension and the video should pop out.
|
||
|
||
### Were you able to enable PIP mode in Brave?
|
||
|
||
Picture in Picture mode has become an essential feature for casual streaming consumption. I find it strange that Brave and other browsers haven’t paid enough attention to it. Firefox handles it excellently.
|
||
|
||
I hope this quick little tip helped you to get the PIP experience in Brave browser. Which of the two methods do you prefer? Right-click or the extension?
