How to use the pip (picture in picture) system

The Picture in Picture (PiP) system is a feature of modern web browsers that allows you to view a video in a separate window, overlaid on top of other applications. This feature is particularly useful when you want to watch a video while working on other tasks, without having to interrupt the video playback.

The PiP system is supported by many web browsers including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Safari. Additionally, many video streaming apps such as Netflix, YouTube, and Amazon Prime Video support this feature.

How the PiP system works

When you start a video that is compatible with the PiP system, a corresponding icon will appear in the video player window. Clicking on the icon will reduce the video to a smaller window that can be moved and resized as desired. The video will continue to play even if you switch tabs or open another application.

In addition, the PiP system offers some video control options such as pause, fast forward or rewind. These options can be activated by right-clicking on the PiP video window.

How to use the PiP system with pip install

To use the PiP system via the "pip install" command (Python Package Installer), it is necessary to have Python installed on your computer. Once Python is installed, you can use the pip install command to download and install the Python packages needed to use the PiP system.

For example, to install the "pyppeteer" package which enables using the PiP system on Google Chrome, you can type the following command at the command prompt:

• pip install pyppeteer

After installing the "pyppeteer" package, you can use the PiP system features within your Python scripts.

Some examples of how pip can be used

Here are some examples of how the PIP system can be used:

• Watching a video while working: with the pip system, you can watch a video in a window that is always visible while you work on other applications. This allows you to follow a tutorial or watch a movie without having to interrupt your work.
• Video conferencing: if you are in a video conference and need to consult notes or documents, you can use the pip system to keep the video conference window always visible while opening other programs to access your information.
