Would be 5 stars if it had the ability to mass remove videos in a playlist that are in your watch later playlist kinda like how back in the day youtube would let you remove a whole playlist from your watch later playlist if every video in the playlist was in your watch later playlist already but what i would rather have is the ability to remove the videos in the playlist that are in your watch later playlist without needing to have every video from the playlist in your watch later playlist, i would also be fine with just a remove from watch later button like the add to watch later button but rather then adding videos that aren't already in the watch later playlist to the watch later playlist the button would remove the videos from the watch later playlist if there already in it. The reason i want this / need it is because i'm two years behind on some of the youtubers i watch leading to me having lets plays from them that i haven't watched yet with most of them being close to or longer then 100 videos meaning if i watch the first episode of the lets play and don't like it and end up not watching the lets play it ends up taking up room in the playlist until i get around to removing it all which is a real pain when they're 100 videos long, so if you could add the ability to remove playlist videos from watch later that would be super helpful and make my year no really it would make my year if you added it. Also sorry for making you read the word playlist 15 times well 16 now.

Just perfect

v3

I updated to the new version and the addon doesn't seem to work anymore.. no selections, no Action bar or Icon button. I hope this will be fixed.

OLD REVIEW

v2

What a good addon! It finally allowed me to split YT playlists with 400 elements (they became slow to manage) into smaller ones. The option to multiselect a range with few clicks is a godsend.
It works great, except for some minor issues: it messes up the order if the list isn't fully loaded or updated (refresh it often), it cannot move private videos (they could return public), it cannot drag selections inside the list (only moves to top\bottom).

Helped me get my watch later list managed until recently when the remove action stopped working

EDIT: Randomly started working again 5/5

ANOTHER EDIT: It recently got an Update and was working flawlessly, but YouTube made some changes that broke it.

This add on is incredibly helpful and mostly solves the problems caused when youtube removed their original edit playlist options.

I do have one problem though.

When selecting multiple videos in a playlist and moving them all "to top" everything works fine and the videos are moved to the top of the playlist in the same order they had been prior.

But when doing the same and moving "to bottom" the videos get moved into alphabetical order instead of the order they had been prior.

Would like to see if anyone else has this issue or if it could be solved.

Great add on otherwise though!

**EDIT**

My issue above was seemingly patched and fixed. Thanks!

This is a much needed tool for Youtube - thank you for making it! Unfortunately it isn't working perfectly so one needs to pay very close attention while using it. For example when a longer list is loaded and one starts to select items from it and keeps scrolling down, when more videos get loaded in, they get randomly selected as well, so one has to start over... Unless it goes unnoticed, because then it makes a huge mess.

Also after removing selected items from the list, sometimes there were items (videos) left on the list which should have been deleted.

I was sorting out a huge list with over 4.000 videos on it and this add-on cut down the time needed to do so to about 1/5. But if it worked flawlessly, it would've cut down the time to perhaps 1/20.

You've got no idea how much I love you for making this extension, as someone who has playlists that are multiple hundreds of videos long (and prefers to have them organized,) I've been looking for an extension like this one for a little bit now. It works well, and the only issues it has are pretty much unavoidable as far as I can tell.

Проблемы:
1)При смене YouTube акаунта (например акаунт №1 меняем на №2), расширение аккаунт НЕ МЕНЯЕТ и в акаунте №2 предлагает список плейлистов принадлежащий акаунту №1. Удаление расширения и повторная установка проблему не решает (акаунт №1 навсегда закрепился в расширении).
Если кто-то сталкивался с проблемой и нашёл решение напишите пожалуйста ОТВЕТ (переустановка браузера или использование нескольких браузеров, а также вкладки в контейнере, НЕ предлагать:)
2)При выделении всех необходимых видео и добавлении их в НОВЫЙ плейлист (который создаётся непосредственно в диалоге выбора плейлиста) в плейлист добавляется только одно видео (то из меню которого вызывали диалог добавления). НО, если создать плейлист заранее и добавлять видео в уже созданный плейлист, то всё работает отлично!

For some reason, if I add multiple videos from a playslit to another playlist, it adds them backwards. 1-2-3-4-5 becomes 5-4-3-2-1 in the new playlist if I select all 5 of them and choose to add them all at the same time. Also, be CAREFUL when removing videos in a 100+ videos playlist, it seems the app also select other videos by itself and you could remove them by mistake.

Edit: I know it ain't bothersome when it's only 5 videos, you can manually set the order; but it is bothersome when you add 100+ videos at a time.

A life savor and Thank You for this awesome addon/extension ;)

This is a wonderful add-on to compensate for YouTube's inexplicable lack of playlist tools – which should be a core feature.

The best addon ever!!! Thank you very much! I have been looking for this addon for a very long time.

I've had a number of issues with this extension and found it clunky (ui not loading properly when the page is refreshed, check-boxes appearing on parts of the website that are supposed to be disabled).

But, it provides such an essential service for playlist owners and I couldn't find any alternatives. I leave it disabled until I need to sort a playlist, which is then when this extension single-handedly saves hours of my time.

This add-on is really helpful with YouTube's absolutely awful playlist management. I do wish the multi-select "Save to playlist" option actually worked, rather than needing the "Add to queue" workaround detailed in the "About this extension" section -- but even with the workaround, it's a big time-saver.

The best extension ever made for YouTube. It's a shame that YouTube itself doesn't have this ability or anything like it at all.

Five stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Update 1:

Unfortunately no more checkboxes at the moment. Power button is missing. "Selection from to" not possible at the moment. From the usual five stars, unfortunately only 2 stars.

Update 2:
5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

After reinstallation, I only saw that the rights had to be reassigned.
Now the extension is working again.
Great web extension

Update 3:
2 stars ⭐⭐
Unfortunately, it has been no longer possible to select something in the subscription box (when grid view is selected) for a few days now (list view, however, works), since YouTube tinkered with its website (again).

5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Super fast Dev 👍

Nice effort. It only lacks the ability to add selection to specific playlist.
