Usage
This function runs automatically, so it is not called manually. Is this incorrect?
Additional Notes
This function checks for the video to play, pause, or end.
When played, nebula_playing_video is triggered.
When paused, nebula_paused_video is triggered.
When ended, nebula_finished_video is triggered.
This function also triggers nebula_engaged_video when the user has watched enough of the video to be considered engaged.

Override
To override or disable this JavaScript function, simply redeclare it with the exact same function name. Remember: Some functionality is conditionally loaded via dynamic imports, so if your function is not overriding properly, try listening for a DOM event (described below).
JavaScript
For non-module import functions:
nebula.youtubeStateChange = function(){
//Write your own code here, leave it blank, or return false.
}
For dynamically imported module function overrides:
jQuery(window).on('load', function(){
nebula.youtubeStateChange = function(){
//Write your own code here, leave it blank, or return false.
}
});
Custom Nebula DOM events do also exist, so you could also try the following if the Window Load listener does not work:
jQuery(document).on('nebula_module_loaded', function(module){
//Note that the module variable is also available to know which module specifically was imported
if ( typeof nebula.youtubeStateChange === 'function' ){
nebula.youtubeStateChange = function(){
//Write your own code here, leave it blank, or return false.
}
}
});
