Auto-HD isn't working in Chrome #520

Since Google disabled the plugin version, I switched to the UserScript + TamperMonkey option which was working until today (I think) when the auto-HD function stopped doing it's thing. The video size resizes to the 720p size, but the quality doesn't auto-switch to 720p.

Any idea why that might be happening?

I just found that if I set my player manually to "Flash" that the auto-HD works. Maybe they changed their HTML5 player?

It will work with Flash but not HTML5. HTML seems to always default to 480p no matter what you set auto at. I find that video quality of 720p Flash is weaker than 720p HTML5 though.
