Browser extension · Coming soonQuackTile: watch several videos at once
QuackTile arranges several video tabs as borderless windows side by side, a grid of videos instead of constant tab switching. For Chrome and Opera.
The problem
Real multi picture-in-picture does not exist in Chromium: the browser only ever allows a single PiP window. QuackTile solves this with real windows. It arranges the tabs themselves as borderless windows instead of pulling the video out. That is why it works with most video sites, including DRM content like Netflix, because the page keeps running normally, just as a tile.

Features
Everything a video wall needs
Control deck
One command center for everything
The deck is the single place where every tiling action comes together. One click arranges all open video tabs as windows, another pulls them back into normal tabs. You drive the whole video wall from here, without touching each window on its own.
- Tile or clear away all video tabs at once
- Layout, audio and monitor spread in one place
- Reach it by mouse click or keyboard shortcut
Layouts
An automatic grid, or your own
QuackTile works out a fitting grid from the number of videos automatically, from a two-way split to a dense wall. If you prefer a fixed arrangement, build your own layout, save it and bring it back any time with one click.
- Automatic grid that matches the number of windows
- Save and name your own layouts
- Reapply saved layouts whenever you want
Multiple monitors
As many screens as you have
With several monitors, QuackTile spreads the tiles across every connected screen instead of cramming them onto one. You decide which monitor gets which windows and put the whole width of your desk to use.
Audio
Hear exactly what you want
With many videos running, the audio quickly turns into noise. By default QuackTile only lets the window you are looking at be heard. In the volume mixer you set each tile on its own, or mute everything in one move.
- Only the focused window is audible
- Set the volume per tile in the mixer
- Mute everything with a single click
Video-only mode
Just the picture, nothing else
Video-only mode hides everything that is not the video: menu bars, recommendations, comments and chat. What stays is the bare picture, borderless in its tile. That keeps even many small windows calm and tidy instead of cluttered.
Collections
Ready-made lists, one click
A collection is a saved list of video addresses. One click opens every entry in tabs and tiles them right away. Bundled examples like news wall, lofi or webcams show the idea, and you save your own collections for the rounds you watch again and again.
- Open and tile a whole list with one click
- Examples like news wall, lofi or webcams included
- Save your own collections and reuse them
Right-click menu
Tile straight from the right-click
Right-click a video link - QuackTile tiles it as a window right away or drops it into one of your collections. No detour through the deck.
- 'Tile this link' opens it directly as a window
- 'Add to collection' drops it into an existing collection
- 'New collection' turns it into a fresh list in one step
Customizable deck
Your deck, your actions
Everyone uses QuackTile a little differently. So the deck can be set up to put the actions you use often up front. Rarely used ones move into the options, which keeps the interface lean and matched to how you work.
- Bring frequent actions to the front
- Move rarely used ones into the options
- Keep the deck lean and shaped around your workflow
