how do I turn off the pop up player that keeps playing the youtube or facebook videos that I just closed?

Since I have the new Mac, every time I close a YouTube or Facebook video, it keeps playing in a small pop up window on the right bottom of the screen. This is utterly annoying. I have the problem on all devices now. Can't find anything online about how to turn off that darn pop up window feature. Help is much appreciated!

Click the settings cog wheel under the video player and go to advanced settings and turn of mini player.


You have to do it on the channel page of the stream you watch, at the bottom right where you can als sub or follow the channel, there should be an option/cog (advanced options) and you can then tick off mini player.
