Try CY Fung's fix. If that doesn't work, bump the 600 figure up to 750 and see if that works for you.
Sometimes, it doesn't always work as I noticed that the video is still small but it seems to happen infrequently. It could be a thing on YouTube's end as before I switched to this script, the extensions I used to use stopped working a week or so ago. Beyond that, it's been alright.
