When using the quality shortcut to cycle through video quality options, the "Auto" (automatic) quality option is missing from the cycle. Users cannot return to Auto after manually selecting a quality.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Set a shortcut for cycling video quality
  2. Use the shortcut on any video
  3. Observe that "Auto" quality is not available in the cycle
Expected behavior

The quality shortcut should include "Auto" as an option so users can return to automatic quality selection.
