MUMBAI: Netflix seems to be testing a new feature, a pop-out video player, that will allow users to stream videos in a small floating box that hovers above other windows and applications. The new feature means a user can watch videos on Netflix while doing other work, a perfect tool for multi tasking.

According to engadget report, users will have to click on a small icon along the bottom of the screen to use the pop-out player. Users can resize it and position it according to their own choice once the window appears. However, subtitles are not yet available in the window.

Although Netflix has yet to formally announce the feature,  the pop-out player seems to be rolling out slowly. But Netflix has confirmed to engadget that it is testing a pop-out player.
