World Cup, league fixtures, whatever's on — dock the stream to a strip of your screen and it stays there. Maximize your work window and it fills what's left, not the whole desktop. No shrinking the player, no dragging it out of the way every five minutes.
The usual workaround is a small resized browser window balanced in a corner, which gets buried the second you click into anything else — or a tiny picture-in-picture player that other windows can still be dragged over. Always On Dock reserves the space properly: your stream keeps its spot regardless of what else you're doing, at whatever size you set it to.
| Approach | Stays visible when you maximize other windows | Reserved, not floating |
|---|---|---|
| Manually resized window | No — gets covered | No |
| Browser picture-in-picture | Partial — can still be covered | No, floats |
| Always On Dock | Yes | Yes |
Keep a series playing in the corner while you handle email or admin work.
Dedicate a slice of your second screen to a stream permanently, without babysitting the window.
Works with a browser tab, a dedicated streaming app, or a media player — whatever you already use.
Drag the video window's title bar onto the dock strip. It's reserved from then on, regardless of what you maximize elsewhere.
No — PiP floats and can still be covered. Always On Dock reserves genuine desktop space that other windows can't overlap.
Yes, any normal Windows window can be docked.
