Quick add to playlist

Open Geobert opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

⚬ PROBLEM: I manage 2 "watch later" playlist, one to watch with my partner, the other where I keep videos that only interest me. The button on the thumbnail only add to the default "watch later" playlist from YT.

⚬ SOLUTION:
Either:

  • tranforming the add to watch later button to display a menu (which has been configured in settings to offer choices on the selected playlists only)
  • add a button that shows a menu with configurable playlist choice, and directly add to the playlist if only one choice
  • add a button on thumbnail that exposes the "save to playlist" action for a quick access

⚬ ALTERNATIVES: none found

⚬ RELEVANCE / SCOPE: 40%?

⚬ "SIDE EFFECTS":
If ever YT add a new button on thumbnail, it can break

SHORT Table (Summary)
Problem Quick add to custom playlist
Solution Options for button on thumbnail
Alternatives None
Scope 30-40%?
Side effects Could break in the future
