Quick summary
YouTube's Miniplayer feature lets you minimize a video into a small floating window so you can keep watching while browsing other pages. Activating it takes just a right-click, letting you multitask on YouTube without interrupting playback.
Steps
- Go to youtube.com and open any video.
- Right-click the video, then select the Miniplayer icon — it looks like a small rectangle with an arrow pointing into a corner.
- The video shrinks into a small floating player in the bottom-right corner of your browser window.
- You can now browse other YouTube pages while the video continues playing.
- Drag the miniplayer to reposition it, or hover over it to reveal playback controls.
- To return to the full video, click the Expand icon in the top-left corner of the miniplayer.
