Once your YouTube playlists and liked videos get large, the built-in search becomes really frustrating.

You can’t easily:

search across multiple playlists

filter results properly

use regex or pattern searches

sort videos in useful ways

open multiple selected results quickly

I ran into this problem so often that I ended up building a small Chrome extension to solve it.

It's called Todij Playlist Manager.

The idea is simple: treat playlists, channels, and liked videos as one searchable collection.

Features

• search across playlists, channels, and liked videos • advanced search (including regex) • filtering by date, duration, channel, etc • better sorting options • bulk opening of selected videos • supports external YouTube videos as well

It’s mainly meant for people who keep large YouTube libraries for learning or research.

If anyone here deals with huge playlists or saved tutorials, I’d be curious to know how you currently manage them.
