Auto Picture-in-Picture Setting

Adds an Auto Picture-in-Picture toggle control to Zen Browser's unified site data panel. The setting only appears when media (audio/video) is detected on the current tab, allowing you to quickly enable or disable Firefox's automatic Picture-in-Picture feature when switching tabs.

Features

  • Automatically detects when media is playing on the current tab
  • Adds a toggle in the site data panel (accessible via the address bar)
  • Shows/hides the setting dynamically based on media playback state
  • Updates when switching tabs or when media starts/stops
  • Persists the preference setting across browser sessions

How it works

  • Monitors the zen-unified-site-data-panel for media presence
  • Uses multiple detection methods to check for active media controllers
  • Toggles the Firefox preference media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enable-when-switching-tabs.enabled

Installation

Place zen-auto-pip-setting.uc.js in your JS directory and ensure your script loader is configured to execute it.

Requirements

  • Zen Browser (Firefox-based)
  • User script loader (fx-autoconfig)
  • Access to Services API
