Nice product! It might be a bit of a hard brand-word to pronounce and communicate... But who knows, maybe you'll do as well as LaCroix did for pamplemousse ;)

#42It has been a very popular feature in unix porn community for half-a-decade now for window-managers like i3 or awesome.
It's very convenient and can be extensively configured except maybe for the mouse passthrough feature, haven't seen that before but I've seen transparency on mouse over being done before so it's probably there somewhere :)
Personally I found that my laptop's monitor (x220) is a bit too small to find any real advantages over simple tiling or workspaces but I can see it being a great tool for bigger displays.

#43this is already available for free through safari. nevertheless, good luck with your product. :)
Yeah, that's what I thought. What's the difference between these?
Re: Show HN: Fenêtre – Picture-in-picture for your mac
#44Although I see the appeal I feel that any more distraction is exactly the opposite of what I want. Maybe I see this way to serious but I would be tempted to use this all the time and I'd assume I'd work much worse.

#45play.hbonow.com does not load in it because I think it's using a mobile user agent, which hbonow seems to not want to support
It is indeed using a mobile user agent.
I have plans to rework this, and let the user switch between the two modes.
Right now, it's possible to deactivate it in the settings of the Pro app.

Can't seem to find anywhere to report bugs other than Twitter or here. Have you got a support email address/form/issue tracker users can access?

You can use support[at]fenêt.re if needed.
I'll change the 'Contact' link at the bottom of the webpage to reflect that.
Re: Show HN: Fenêtre – Picture-in-picture for your mac
#48While somewhat on the subject of window utilities: Is there a program that lets you make say a virtual desktop, then draw a box around a section that you can then take to your real desktop? It would be handy to have for programs that are overly buttony and ribbony that you know well enough to navigate keyboard only (or that you use only for a specific subset of commands) which take up far too much screen real estate.
Have you looked into the zoom feature in System Preferences > Accessibility > Zoom? You can't draw a box, but you can zoom in and cut down on the clutter you see to an area the same shape as your monitor. I use it all the time because of my vision, but it has the side effect of enabling a distraction free mode of sorts in lots of programs.
I just checked it out, not really what I'm looking for. but thanks
