Increase the possible Picture in Picture window size

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Screenbox limits the size from the PiP window. Image

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to be able to make the PiP window as big as I want.

Example from Firefox: Image

Describe alternatives you've considered I have used Screenbox in the normal mode before, changed the size and made it "always on top" with Microsoft Powertoys. This works, but is not as elegant.

We can't, compact overlay mode is limited to a maximum size of 500x500 epx.

Oh. Sad to hear. Would an implementation like the one from browsers work with opening another window, or would that be too complicated to implement?

Theoretically, opening another window is possible, but the challenge is making it stay on top.

Not being able to resize is a big deal breaker for me. clsid2/mpc-hc can stay on top at any size you choose.

Sorry, you can resize but there is a hard cap. The only available solution is the one mentioned as alternative.
