ability to creat new playlist

Open MD77MD opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

alot of times i find myself wanting to add a video to a playlist.. currently i can only add videos to preexisting playlist which is great

however most of the times the preexisting playlists are not relevant, at the same time i can not creat a new playlist... so i end up having to go find my phone and creat a new playlist from there, then go back to the tv to add the video(s) to newly created playlist...

as you can see this is much of hassle... i which if we could have the ability to just create playlists from the playlists menu

video ==> add video to playlist ==> playlists menu ==> creat playlist ==> name playlist ==> save ==> finish adding video.

The SmartTubeNext interface shows two methods to create a new playlist -- by long-pressing on a video before it plays or long-pressing on the Playlists section.

Neither work for me.

If creating playlists is impossible on Android TV, please remove the option from the interface for now.

Just a comment, as an experienced youtube user: I would definitely keep away from managing playlists outside YT web interface. It has evolved in quite sensitive matter, it also implies so may different functions beside basic Add/Remove... I mean like setting visibility/privacy, hidden videos, individual arranging, description, setting list image, adding new videos to top or bottom, etc Not to mention what a possible catastrophe would be accidentaly deleting a large playlist... Glad to see this is an option in STN. Hope all the playlist functions will keep staying optional from the context menu.

I found two UIs to create a new playlist in SmartTubeNext. But none of them works.
