Channel groups and rating for YouTube™ subs Edge extension security report

How to get started: 1. Sign out of Google accounts from https://accounts.google.com/Logout if you have multiple accounts. To synchronize the extension, you need to be logged in with only one account. 2. Log into Google using the extension button next to the address bar. This way you can securely save the extension data on your Google drive. All functions, except synchronization with Google Drive, can work without logging into Google. 3. Go to Your YouTube Subscriptions and follow the instructions in the panel that appears to help you group your channels. If you only need analytics, blocking videos on YouTube using a filter or sound effects, then you don’t need to configure anything else, everything will work even for anonymous YouTube users. Features: Grouping and filtering 1. Filters videos by type (watched, premieres, scheduled, short, etc.), rating, and YouTube subscription or channel groups. 2. Groups channels (allows creating groups for channels). 3. Allows personal rating of YouTube channels. 4. Groups comments by channels. Video blocking and filters To use video filters and blocking, you need to open the "Video" dialog. This dialog can be accessed from the YouTube subscriptions section. In the subscriptions section of this extension's panel, click on the "Video" button. 1. Filters videos by keyword in the video title, absence of keyword in the video title, keyword in the full group name (including the group path), and keyword in the channel name. 2. Allows selecting the search method for keyword: regular expression or case-insensitive text part. 3. The extension saves video filters with the option to choose the desired filter. 4. The extension creates playlists based on the filtering results. 5. Provides the ability to block videos based on a filter. To block a video, the filter's video blocking feature needs to be enabled in the filter rules. 1) The extension blocks videos and playlists on the YouTube homepage, in the subscriptions section, on the video search page, in YouTube trends, on the channel page, and on the video viewing page. Blocking is done by blurring the text information and hiding video thumbnails. 2) This extension allows you to instantly see video blocking in action. It displays and blocks videos from the subscriptions section. 3) Allows disabling the blocking without removing it. 4) Allows creating a filter that cancels video blocking. 5) Allows blocking all videos from a channel in just 2 clicks. To do this, add the channel to a group with the option to blur video thumbnails enabled. 6. Synchronizes all video filters (including blocking) through Google Drive, allowing the same filters to be used on different devices. 7. Exports information about video filters to Excel. Audio effects 1. Equalizer. The equalizer is available on the YouTube video page under the "Equalizer" button next to the channel name. The equalizer is useful if you want to improve audio data or compensate for sound output device limitations. It is also used for music. Available filters: 1) HP (high-pass filter). 2) HS (high shelf filter). 3) LP (low-pass filter). 4) LS (low shelf filter). 5) Peak filter. 6) Notch filter. 7) BP (band-pass filter). 8) BP (band-stop filter). 2. Saves sound effects to a list with the possibility of choosing the desired sound effect. 3. Allows assigning an audio effect to all videos or only to a selected group of channels. 4. Normalizes volume. Volume normalization is available in the short video section under the "Normalize" button, as well as when using the equalizer in the "Equalizer" dialog. This is useful when there is a loud or quiet speaker in a video. Volume normalization eliminates the need to manually adjust the volume for different videos, as this extension automatically adjusts the volume. Normalization is particularly useful in the short video section, where there are many videos with varying volume levels. In some cases, new sounds can be heard that were not audible before normalization. Analytics 1. Shows information about time spent, broken down by days of the week and time of day. With this information, you can understand your viewing habits formed as a result of watching videos, making it easier for you to choose a channel to watch. 2. Displays information about video languages, genres, and the percentage of watched video segments. 3. The extension shows activity information for each channel: time spent, percentage of views, last viewed moment, and number of videos. 4. Allows you to create a playlist with videos from each channel that you have previously watched, with the option to select a date range for the last viewing of these videos. This is useful if you want to find out which videos you have not watched completely. 5. Displays information about the channels added to the system. It shows groups, ratings, the number of comments, the number of seconds to skip from the beginning of the video, the moment of addition to the system, and also shows the channel status: whether it is available or not. 6. Adds an indicator for watched video segments. This is useful when you want to finish watching the remaining part of a video without starting from the beginning. Other extension features: 1. Rotates videos, changes playback speed, replaces sound and video for a specified group. 2. Skips a specified number of seconds in a video for a selected channel. This is useful if there is nothing interesting at the beginning of all videos from that channel. 3. Shows high-quality video thumbnails in YouTube subscriptions. 4. Automatically syncs with Google Drive if you sign in using the extension icon. 5. Exports video information, video filters, and analytics to Excel. When do we need to replace audio or video for all videos in a channel? There are many music videos on YouTube without videos, you can replace the video to make it more enjoyable to watch all the videos from such channels. Some clips can be improved by replacing the sound. Create a group and specify your wishes in the video settings. Add any channel to this group and these settings will be applied to all videos of this channel. How can you watch a lot of short YouTube videos quickly? This extension allows you to combine the found video from the subscription into playlists. Using playlists, you can simply watch all the videos at once, switching to them automatically, so you can save a lot of time. Open the Videos dialog in the extension's panel in your YouTube subscriptions. Find a video using the filter and click on the Create playlist button. Where can I find high-quality preview images of YouTube videos? This extension allows you to display a list of videos from subscriptions, in which images are in high quality. Open the Videos dialog in the extension's panel in your YouTube subscriptions. And then all you have to do is right-click on the image and do whatever you want with it. How do I mark YouTube channels as bad? For this opportunity to appear, you need to use this extension. As in the operating system, we use the trash bin for garbage. Likewise, for bad content, we can use the YouTube folder for trash. We need to create a folder for spam or junk and place the selected channels there. In other words, we need to group channels that we consider garbage. The name of this YouTube folder is located on the video viewing page, so by organizing channels in this way, you can immediately understand what quality this video is. How can you save time watching videos? While watching videos, you often get enough information to save you time. You should not lose the information you receive. Typically, you need data to predict something. And data is the experience you get as a result of your viewing. At first glance, it may seem that by liking the clip you are doing something useful for yourself because you keep your impressions. But it will not help you much if you want to decide whether to watch a new clip from this channel or not. To find a solution, you need to link your impressions to your subscription by grouping them with other channels. This will allow you to quickly find suitable clips and will save you time if you figure out which broadcasts are unnecessary for you. This extension allows you to achieve this goal by ranking and organizing YouTube channels. Let me show you an example. Let's say you are already subscribed to a channel that releases many new clips every day, but most of the clips do not interest you. You know that the program you want comes out once a week. You have to get a lot of extra videos six days a week for one show. This extension gives you the ability to hide unnecessary items with one click. All you need is to add the channel to the YouTube folder and include it in the filter when you need it. What do you do when you have a lot of elements? If we are talking about a file, then you usually put it in a folder. Let's imagine we have a lot of subscriptions. Have you seen a folder for them somewhere? In such cases, we can group subscriptions to create a hierarchical structure by organizing channels into categories (YouTube folders). This application extends the capabilities of the YouTube subscription manager, which is available on the subscription management page, organizing channels using categories like folders. This feature is very similar to the YouTube collections removed in the last decade. But unlike collections, the data you create is stored on Google Drive, so you manage it. You can make a backup or sync with your computer just like a regular file on a Google drive. If you want, you can even see what's inside the file or delete it completely. In addition to YouTube folders, this application also can manage subscriptions using the rating. YouTube™ is a trademark of Google Inc. Use of this trademark is subject to Google Permissions.
