Picture-in-picture

PiP allows you to display HTML5 videos in a floating window, so that you can continue to watch video as you scroll down a page or change tabs. As of today’s snapshot this is now available within Vivaldi. Just right click on a video and select Picture-in-picture from the context menu. For certain sites like Youtube, this is not yet possible via the their custom context menu (though double right clicking works around that). If you want something simpler this extension will allow you to use PiP when the standard context menu is not available. Just click on the extension button when you browse a website with a video.

In the future, websites will likely use the Picture-in-Picture Specification to offer this via custom buttons and better control the experience for the user.

Creating notes from Quick Commands

In the last snapshot we let you search notes from Quick Commands. Well now you can also create them from QC as well!
