// 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

// 2024.01.17
// Fix issue with user script managers that don't define GM

// 2024.01.14
// Partially fix auto theater mode again after more youtube changes
// Note that if you want to turn theater mode back off after using auto theater you have to click the button a few times. This is a known issue that hasn't been fixed yet.
