Expected Result:
The PiP fly-out will not appear upon hover on video, play/pause video, etc.

The only action that toggles the PiP button is clicking on the seeking bar or on the fast forward/backward 10 seconds buttons.

I suspect this will be fixed by a fix for bug 1548296, but I want to make sure, so not duping this one immediately.

Depends on: 1548296

Hi Timea, now that bug 1548296 is fixed, are you still able to reproduce this?

Flags: needinfo?(tbabos)

For what it's worth, I still can. Even before that fix, I've noticed that the PiP fly-out does appear on Netflix, but very occasionally, sometimes after minutes of playback with no obvious trigger.

Also, not sure if related, but PiP can't be forcibly activated via context menu, because the actual video element is overlaid with a full-sized div with control elements, so context menu doesn't contain video-specific actions.

For what it's worth, I still can.

To be clear, you can still reproduce this in today's Nightly?

Checked it out on latest Nightly 71.0a1 (2019-09-08) (64-bit) on Windows 10 and it does appear now upon hovering on the video.
Ingvar, if by any chance, you still see this on latest Nightly, please let us know.

Closing it as resolved:wfm given that Bug 1548296 was already verified and also confirmed the Netflix fix.
