## Ticket
1526: strange thumbnail size requested on mobile layout (pc only?)
## General Problem
It was trying to fetch based on the exact size of the video container, which would satisfy Core Vitals (in an overkill way), but would bring several issues:
- server-side caching would not work since everyone's window size is different in a responsive layout design.
- the additional 200ms wait for container size to settle down is not good (hardcoded wait time).
- the code did not account for device-pixel-ratio, so it's quite a futile effort.
Aside: In the past, we used to take the same image url as the tiles, so the video poster would appear immediately from due to browser cache, but the quality is bad because the tile requested a much smaller size.
The embed wrapper was not going through the CDN either as a null `containerRef` was passed in.
## Change
Removed the container-size check and just request for 1280x720. Reasons for this size:
- On average, that would be the ballpark of the final calculated value anyway for the average screen (+DPR consideration).
- That seems to be the current suggested thumbnail size in most recommendations.
- Our YT Sync is grabbing a much smaller size anyway.
We are asking Outbrain to make it order-agnostic, but for now, we need to load the Sticky script first before the Banner script.
This is ugly code because the requirement is not obvious unless we put a bunch of comments, but I don't want to pollute `app/view.jsx`. Hopefully they can address this and we can revert in the coming days.
* fix bug and add some documentation
* Prevent is_live fetching when playing stream and going back to livestream page

Fixed the title that did not update from stale closure because we no longer re-initialize the plugin.
We still continue to sever the connection when switching sources for now (although videojs is now single-instance) due to a problem that stops the next remote playback after 5-10 seconds. Unclear whether it is the plugin problem or due to our changes (although I don't see this issue in their repo).

While Lighthouse suggests adding `alt`, I think it's just a recommendation that does not affect the Core Vitals score directly -- the large css plays a bigger role at the moment.
Also, these are more "decorative" than "functional", because one could click the channel name navigate.
* Playback-rate: fix popup behavior
- Part of 1637 - invokes the popup menu when clicked.
- This also makes the button consistent with other `MenuButton`s, i.e. to invoke a menu popup when clicked instead of hovered.
* Adjust CSS

- The function name is good and self-documenting, so removed the redundant comment. Whether it's 'precise' or not, it could change in the future and not worth maintaining a comment like that.
- Focused on the non-obvious reason for SHIFT key instead.
- Fixed "on scroll" variable naming since it is not just for scrolling (it applies to keyboard up/down too)
