YouTube Overlay is a program that generates a floating window for a YouTube video, so you will have the video always active on your screen while you perform other tasks on your computer.
But the created window also has several features that make the platform a very good option compared to the browser add-ons we know.
How to use it
Once installed from its official page, you will see its simple interface where you must insert the full URL of the YouTube video you want to watch, and then just click Overlay to run it in an active floating window.
From the window you can control all the functions you have on the site of the broadcasting giant (subtitles, video quality, etc.). You can also carry out other practical functions such as enlarging or shrinking the window by stretching or contracting the corners with the cursor, or moving it to any part of the screen from Hold to drag.
From the window you can also easily manage video playback, playlists, and favorite videos.
The platform has really worked perfectly, and although the floating window is always invasive, we have the possibility to change its position and size as many times as we need.
Availability
YouTube Overlay is a free program available for Windows operating systems (requires .NET Framework and Adobe Flash Player).
