Pipvid — Snaps videos to the corner of your screen

Hi again Product Hunt, 👋 Pipvid is another app that I really wanted to have for myself. I like to keep a video playing while I work. It might be a talk, a tutorial video or just an episode of Sliders (😅). The past few weeks it's been WWDC videos. The thing I've been missing is a great video player that allows me to keep the window locked in position, always floating on top in the corner of my screen. A bit like Safari's built-in pip-mode, but for local files and the option to create playlists. I considered writing a player from the ground up, but instead I added the functionality to two great existing players: VLC and QuickTime. Pipvid uses Apple's Accessibility API to manage the player windows, creating a pretty seamless experience once it's activated. You can easily toggle it on or off from the menu bar and even set some options. You can download a trial version from the site that works for 10 minutes at a time. After that you can purchase a license through Gumroad. You get a 50% discount if you use the `producthunt` coupon! (Or just use this link: https://gum.co/pipvid/PRODUcthunt) Let me know what you think! Cheers, Boy

Pipvid v1.1 is out now! 🚀 It adds size-based window management. This means you can just shrink a window down to trigger Pipvid and snap the video player into a corner. It's pretty cool! 📏

Nice! Now I can watch all the WWDC videos while I'm coding :)

good work mate! this is awesome
