- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 16813525, 5 days agoStruggles greatly with playlists with a lot of videos in them (>1,500 videos give or take). For smaller playlists, searching is no issue, but the extension will fail to find hits in larger ones. I've even witnessed a bug where it finds a successful hit, only for the hit to disappear as the extension crawls deeper into the playlist. Of course, as with most other YT playlist search extensions, once it has crawled deep into large playlists, it will cause the tab to lag significantly probably due to the heavy memory usage.

I'm Sorry that the extension didn't meet your expectations.
During my testing, I haven't had any issues searching though a large playlist of 4,000+ videos in it and wasn't able to replicate the bug on my system where a video that was searched would disappear as it continues searching the playlist.
When It comes down to the extension using a lot of memory, when testing, there was lag during the search but once the search is done, you should be able to scroll with minimal lag and searching for other videos in that playlist would be a lot faster once all videos in the playlist are loaded.
To help with the tab lag, turn auto scroll off in the extension if it's on, you can then manually scroll to find video's that match the keyword, group, etc. which should cause less lag in the tab. It will also depend on how many tabs you have opened in the browser and the amount of ram your computer has.
For the video's disappearing when searching, please contact at contact.sudotronics@gmail.com with a video example if you can, since I wasn't able to replicate the issue on my end.
Thank you for giving the extension a try and If you run into any other issues, please do let me know. 👍 - Rated 5 out of 5by Diabloto96, a month agoStill seems to work, thank you so much for enabling this functionality that was never implemented on Youtube!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Alanyyab, 7 months agoReally great implementation. A suggestion would be a filter button for custom group filters. This would be useful for filtering either multiple words or multiple channel names in bulk.

That's a great idea, I will implement this in a coming update.
