Intent to split Blacklist and Ad-Blocker into standalone extensions


A recent unknown change to 360 videos was causing its playback ability to fail when autoplay was disabled and the user tried to play the video.
Improvements have been made to the pop-out player; it plays faster if it is opened during video playback and once it is closed the main window host resumes the video from the point where the pop-out player was playing.

This version fixes a problem where the player max-width was in effect when the player was not in theater mode and when that value was changed it would not be in effect until the page was reloaded.
Additional changes were made to improve performance slightly.

YouTube's recent doodle was preventing the subscription shortcut from working correctly, this should no longer be an issue.
Other fixes include a layout twitch when the window width was exactly 640px, subscription playlist would fail due to max character limit and the pop-out live page wasn't working correctly when YT+ was running.

This version comes with a minor fix. Due to previous included layout improvements, one of them became outdated and no longer necessary. This improvement was keeping the top bar with a bigger height than what it was suppose to be, but this should no longer be the case.

Feature removal

As of version 1.5.0 the feature Disable DASH playback no longer exists. It was a feature that was no longer useful for me, caused more problems which outweighed the single benefit (quality options limited to 360p and 720p, and no 60fps), it no longer worked for constant buffering on Chrome and if Firefox users want to keep this default on their own browser they can just go to the about:config page in Firefox and set media.mediasource.enabled to false. Although this might still work, be aware that eventually YouTube can also apply the same change for Firefox which will stop videos from buffering constantly even with the previous Firefox setting set to false.

This version contains two fixes; one addresses specifically all Chrome users, while scrolling the CPU load was too big and this was being caused by a Chrome bug. With the current release this should no longer be a problem and no lag should be present for the users that felt it.

The other fix corrects the fullbrowser mode when the browser window is too small, it was not covering the top area correctly.

YouTube updated their video player style causing it to have a transparent background when it should be black, this has been fixed.
New /shared app links are accessible in desktop without redirection, due to too many incompatibilities and since the page does not offer anything that isn't already available in the dedicated video page, an automatic redirect is in place which leads to the video page instead.
Due to an oversight the video pop-up buttons were not being placed in channel videos, this should no longer happen.

This version patches just a couple of issues. A combination of using the settings menu while the player is floating was causing resizing misbehavior in the video player, this should be corrected now. Additionally the user selected quality was not being applied during fullscreen transitions, this should no longer be an issue.
