A simple auto-HD script, which does not re-format the page as YouTube Center does. Very fast.

Features:
Sets the resolution of all videos on YouTube to the highest resolution available.
Disables DASH playback
Disables autoplay on video pages.
Pauses videos on channel/user pages.
Pauses videos if a video is started on an inactive tab.

All of these features can be disabled with some console commands. Go to a YouTube page, open the console, and settings are stored in an HDOSettings object. It has properties:
HD
VideoAutoPlay
DASHPlayback
ChannelAutoPlay
PauseInvisible

Change these as you like, and run SaveHDOSettings() in the console to save your settings.
