Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:83.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/83.0

Steps to reproduce:

Tried to resize a picture-in-picture mode video in FF 83 on KDE Plasma 5.20.3 under X11 and Wayland.

Actual results:

The proportions of the video are not respected therefore resizing causes black stripes.

Expected results:

Picture-in-picture should keep the video proportions while resizing like on macOS or Windows.

Bugbug thinks this bug should belong to this component, but please revert this change in case of error.

I'm still having this issue on FF92 and FF94.0a1, on KDE/XFCE/MATE but not GNOME or Windows 10.
I can close and reopen the picture-in-picture to remove the black bars, but it's an annoying workaround.
