A sticky/PIP video player Option
Teresa Beal
A sticky/PIP video player on scroll would be a great feature request, especially with your use case of hundreds of decks with embedded video. That's exactly the kind of real-world argument that gets features prioritized.

Hey Teresa Beal, love this idea. A sticky / picture-in-picture video player while you scroll through a deck with embedded video makes a ton of sense, especially if you’re working through longer docs. I’ll pass this to the team.
Quick question so we can scope it right: when you say PIP, do you mean a true OS-level PIP window, or an in-page mini player that pins to a corner while you keep scrolling?

Hi Nik, thank you—that is exactly what I mean: an in-page mini player that pins to a corner while the viewer keeps scrolling.
Ideally, the embedded video would begin in its normal full-size place in the Gamma, then, once the viewer scrolls past it, it would shrink into a small floating player in the bottom-right corner and continue playing. It should have play/pause, close, and expand-back-to-full-video controls.
This would be especially helpful for longer teaching or devotional Gammas, so viewers can listen or watch while reading the material below.
That would be SO helpful. IT WOULD REALLY HELP THE TEACHING AND TRAINING.. :)

I’m not sure I’m saying exactly right so I said two different ways
