When enabling Custom scroll zoom it will override YouTube native zoom.

Zoom using keyboard shortcuts is always available except when you want to keep the native YouTube zoom function.
Reworked the volume scroll in relation with volume fine control. Now when volume scroll is disabled, it will also disable the ability to do volume fine control via shift + scroll, but shift + up or down is still available as long as volume fine control is active.Source code released under MIT License
