Youtube Queue Recovery
⚬ PROBLEM:
When queues get large, they tend to bug out resulting in the following problems...
- the current video highlight gets stuck,
- the Queue will not reload if page is reset/browser restarts resulting in loss of the Queue.
- you can't saved to a playlist In an attempt to rescue it.
The data however seems to still be there on the page, As the queue will continue normally if left Undisturbed.
⚬ SOLUTION:
fix the Youtube queue, or add a button to recover ... Whether that's finding the root cause and fixing the error that causes it to lock up, Or taking All the queue data off the page and Save it to a file to import again.
⚬ ALTERNATIVES:
There seems to be no current plugins that can do this task. The only solution is to leave the page open and pray you don't need to restart the browser, Or accidentally click something taking you off the queue Losing it forever.
⚬ RELEVANCE / SCOPE:
This has been an issue for years and Youtube seems to not be bothered to fix it. I'm pretty sure it's a welcome fix For everyone, Or at the very least, A work around to at least back up the queue Would be greatly appreciated.
⚬ "SIDE EFFECTS":
It may add yet another Button... but that could be mitigated by having it as a button that only appears on Youtube queues.
⚬ CONTEXT:
It may just be me, but I tend to find that this can randomly happen once you go past 112 Videos in a queue... Don't know if that's significant, Or if that's just me imagining it.
// Thank you!
