2023-09-24	Firefox user 16002417	Great stuff. It would be good if on selecting the popout player the windows minimizes to the task bar.

2022-10-28	Firefox user 10206391	Extension does exactly what Firefox USED TO DO AUTOMATICALLY. Currently, Firefox "Pop-Out" video player doesn't work on sites other than YouTube. So, effectively, virtually useless. This disabling of former Firefox features is, of course, because of the internet wide and Worldwide software plague of making NEW versions of things WORSE than the versions they replace (I'm looking at you, Windows-everything-since-Windows 7.

2022-06-17	Michael Alimax AL	Wow amazing !! Finally I found the Desktop version of the PopUp Player YouTube Add-ons. I've been a fan of Mozilla Firefox since its inception. Although these add-ons are not at the very top of the search for add-ons, but after I use them they work very well as expected. Of course there are a few configurations that must be adjusted to suit your needs. Its name is YouTube Popout Player (not Popup Player) but the purpose and function is the same, namely being able to play the YouTube Mini Player flying over anywhere in Windows. Thank you very much for the creator of these add-ons as well as Software Developers, it is really very useful. Love From 🇮🇩 Indonesia.

2022-01-08	Peter	This add-on does exactly what I was looking for. It always annoys me that Youtubes miniplayer disappears when switching to a new tab. This popout player solves that problem and does a great job!
2021-12-02	Firefox user 13310142	Amazing, just what I was looking for, love it!
2021-09-26	Firefox user 16977028	Great, the only lacking feature is to be able to place the button icon on the video preview to have the opportunity to run video from the main page. UPD: Yes, I know, but I would like to open the video in one click, as in this addon Popup Video(WebExtension). Thanks for the excellent addon.
