// The video will only resize when in theater mode on the main youtube website.
// By default only runs on youtube website, not players embeded on other websites, but there is experimental support for embeds.
// To enable experimental support for embedded players outside of YouTube website, do the following steps:
// add " @include * " to the script metadata
// remove " @noframes " from the script metadata
// 2021.06.16
// - Add ability to specify a separate resolution for 60 fps video
// 2021.08.07
// - Fix potential issue where high framerate resolution wouldn't be set because youtube didn't tell us it was high framerate in time
