Research direction

The issue provides screenshots of the legacy player and the new YouTube layout, but names no files or tests. Start by locating the extension's player layout and customization entry points, then confirm the intended scope with maintainers. Done should provide the legacy player behavior within the new layout without the overlapping or clickable container shown in the issue.
