# Playing videos in the browser



Yandex Browser for Mobile can open `mp4`, `webm`, `ogv`, and `x-m4v` video files.

`flv`, `wmv`, and `hls` video files are not supported.


## Manage videos {#window}

#### **Skip forward/back**
 
:   To skip 10 seconds forward or back, tap twice on the right or left edge of the video, respectively.

#### **View videos on top of apps**
 
:   {% note info %}
    
    This feature isn't available to all users because it's still in development.
    
    {% endnote %}
    
    If you switch to a different app when viewing a full-screen video in Yandex Browser, it continues playing in a small pop-out window, which appears on top of the other app (also known as Picture in Picture, or PiP). Tap the pop-out window to go back to viewing the video in Yandex Browser. You can drag the video window to any part of your screen.
    
    To enable this feature:
    

    1. <!-- source: en/_includes/reusables/phrases/id-phrases/open-sett-4.md -->
       Tap ![](../_assets/settings-menu-icon.svg) → **Settings**.
       <!-- endsource: en/_includes/reusables/phrases/id-phrases/open-sett-4.md -->
    
    1. Go to the **Video** section.

    1. Turn on these options:

        - **Show on top of other applications**: When you exit full-screen mode, the video continues in a separate window.

        - **Show video when leaving the tab**: When you switch to another Yandex Browser tab or another app, the video continues in a separate window.
