I have a laptop with a 1600x900 screen, and it is extended to a TV screen for an additional 1600x900, making it 3200x900 total. I use a macro to resize and position the Picture in Picture to Resize (579x433), Move (2621,437).

The thing is, this Picture in Picture belongs to a YouTube Playlist that I created. While one of the videos in the Playlist is playing, the window stays at the right size and position. But as soon as it switches to the next video in the Playlist, the Picture in Picture window changes size and position.

How do I prevent that from happening? I just want the damn window to stay put.

In the second after a video stops, my understanding is the PIP closes, then reopens fresh for the next video. You should have your macro (autohotkey or something) trigger every time the window is created.

On YouTube playlists, the PIP only changes size and position on the start of every new video in the playlist. But on other sites like this adult webcam site, the video constantly changes size and position like 20 times a minute. I have a macro that restores the size and position I want every six seconds (10 times a minute), but it's not a really great fix. It's annoying to see that PIP window jumping and moving all over the place because it won't stay the size and position that I want. And it's sad that every browser that I use has this problem.

EDIT: I just edited macro to update every one second. It's better. I might do every half second. Hopefully this won't have any negative impact on my laptop performance.
