What is Windowed - floating Youtube/every website?
The 'Windowed - floating Youtube/every website' is an Edge add-on that transforms fullscreen buttons into a popup mode. This tool is effective for all websites that support fullscreen function like YouTube, Netflix, Vimeo, and several others. It provides a miniature menu upon clicking fullscreen, offering a choice between fullscreen or windowed mode. However, it does not support Flash videos and videos with native HTML controls. The add-on ensures no video reloading or usage of custom controls, effectively putting the website in its own fullscreen mode.
