As Eliezers post mentioned the design uses SSL-Bump functionality in the 
Squid to decrypt the HTTPS portion of the transaction before it does its 
magic on the messages themselves.

As a result of that it will still face the cert pinning and HSTS issues, 
and any other problems you may be having with the TLS MITM portion of 
things. Likewise the usual requirement about following the latest Squid 
releases and v4 being better at bumping also apply.

I can't speak as to whether it handles the video resolution cleanly 
right now. It should be possible to do though since the resolution is 
one of the URL parameters.
