Chrome 123 broke extension

It stopped working properly when Chrome switched to Manifest V3 or something like that. There are errors in console regarding not being able to communicate with iframes.

Uncaught DOMException: Failed to read a named property 'dispatchEvent' from 'Window': Blocked a frame with origin "https://www.redgifs.com" from accessing a cross-origin frame.

Redgifs issue

When embedded redgifs open up on reddit, they start out muted and SD. When I click unmute, the extension appears to switch it to HD, but it becomes muted again. There's also some issues with the control bar but that may be on the redgifs side of their new UI update.

Firefox Port

Hi, I don't see any other way to contact you, but I wanted to let you know that I "ported" this to Firefox (it barely took any work) here: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/gfycat-default-hd/

I would be very happy to take it down if you were to release a Firefox version on your own. Also, an open source license would be great if you would rather not support a Firefox version, so I could share it on a source sharing platform.

Thank you for version 1.1!

It works great for my use (I'm usually on old reddit opening specific posts) so the issues aren't a big deal. I appreciate you taking the time to respond and update it.

Works on gfycat URLs, but doesn't work with embedded GIFs

Hi, thanks so much for making this extension!

Just one issue: it works on links that are on the gfycat domain, but it doesn't seem to work on embedded gifs.

Example:
Here's a gfycat embedded in a reddit post: https://redd.it/7od65p. It doesn't switch to HD.
Here's the direct link to the same thing where it works: https://gfycat.com/tallpastirishsetter.

I don't browse gfycat directly - I mainly see things on it that have been posted to other sites such as reddit. If you could make it work on embedded gifs as well that would be fantastic.

Thanks!
