User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:69.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/69.0

Steps to reproduce:

about:config
media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.enabled
switch to false

Actual results:

It does not help. The mode is still on. On YouTube, I still see the icon to enable the "picture-in-picture" mode, it bothers me.

Expected results:

I should not see the mode enable icon, because I have disabled this mode in the browser settings.

Hello Oleksandr,

There's a second pref you need to disable:

media.videocontrols.picture-in-picture.video-toggle.enabled must be set to false for the toggle to be hidden on videos.

The pref you disabled disables the feature in the context menu.

Thank you for this pref.
Moderators, you can close the bug. I do not really know how to do it all.
