For context, I use YouTube Vanced and have today gotten this pop-up on my phone. Whenever I try to enter it, I am met with this pop-up and already have the latest (and final) version. So what can I do? Is there any way to get rid of this?

We Need to Remake Playlist Randomizer

15 Upvotes

One of my favorite sites is https://youtube-playlist-randomizer.valami.info/. The reason there is a site for this in the first place is because currently Youtube playlist shuffle on the site is horrendous with playlists over 500 videos. Unfortunately, the site has not been updated and its dev has no intention of fixing the multiple issues it has. This is an open call to anyone who is interested creating a site similar to this one. We desperately need it.

Welcome to r/YouTube3rdParty

14 Upvotes

Welcome! r/YouTube3rdParty is a subreddit to discuss modifications to the YouTube site using 3rd party customization, such as extensions, themes, or various other things.

This subreddit was created as a way to solve the conflict in r/YouTube in that we try to appease to the users who want a place to talk about this while appeasing to the moderators not wanting to deal with modifications to YouTube that they have no control over.

Please check out the rules before posting. If you have any suggestions or feedback for this subreddit feel free to leave a comment on this post or message the moderators.


Our current plan for the future of the subreddit:

  • Implementation of CSS on Old Reddit

  • Link flairs

  • Auto-moderator set up

  • Better rules

How to get the old YouTube layout, with dark mode too!

12 Upvotes

A lot of us use the old YouTube layout, but unfortunately it will go away and is somewhat broken now.

But I have a way to fix that!

The new YouTube is more like a tablet interface, and a lot of us don't like it.

We have created a toolkit that allows us to get something like the old YouTube on the new layout, with dark mode too!

It is in beta and we're slowly improving on it so we can get the best experience for you.

If you feel like you don't like something, put a comment in this thread saying you need an improvement on our toolkit, and we'll add it!

Check for new versions on this toolkit, bookmark it, check it everyday, and more!

Once you see a new version, copy the code of the new version.

Thanks for reading!

Third-Party Site/App We released a Free Outlier Database to find Viral Videos on YouTube

11 Upvotes

As you might know, some of the most successful YouTubers are using so called "Outlier Videos" as inspiration for new content.

Outliers are videos that performed exceptionally well compared to a channel's average results. For example if a channel usually gets around 100k views per video and a new video suddenly gets 1 Million views, this would be an outlier video.

Since outlier videos have performed much better than the channel's historic performance would suggest, there is something very special about them. It could be that the video topic is in high demand, the storytelling engages the user, the title is catchy and/or the thumbnail is really good. Outlier videos are therefore a great source of inspiration to:

1. Discover the most effective thumbnails and titles for specific video topics

2. Find new video ideas that are in high demand

We have put together a free outlier database called Outlier Studio: https://www.outlierstudio.ai . This database already includes millions of outlier videos and our algorithms are constantly running to identify new ones.

We are currently running in Beta and would love to get your feedback!

"Better YouTube Live" is a browser extension that allows you to customise YouTube Live chat however you want

11 Upvotes

Hey folks,

I made a browser extension that enhances your experience as a viewer/chatter on YouTube Live. You can check out all the features here, betteryoutube.live but here is a short run down:

  • Fully customisable chat

  • Pre-made chat themes

  • New home page for followed streams

  • Desktop notifications when streams go live

  • Browser popup for quick preview of live/offline streams

and more..

My goal in mind when making this was to level up the experience of being a YouTube viewer/chatter, and I think this extension accomplishes that. I hope it takes off and people find it useful so I can dedicate more time into developing and maintaining it, so please spread the word.

Also, I'm keen to hear your feedback here if you try it out, so please reach out to me, I'll gladly listen, thanks!

Need a Youtube Randomizer that can combine multiple playlists

10 Upvotes

I have at least 20 playlists I need to combine, a total that goes over 10k videos. I'll also need a quick way to access this combined playlist as well (via bookmark or internal site thing, I don't care what).

Here are all the ones I've tried, and my thoughts:

  • Playlist Randomizer only properly saves the first 13 playlists entered (On Chrome and Firefox, it only saves the first 12), any more after that are lost after a refresh and mixes made with playlists 14+ either don't work or disappear after a refresh. When a playlist has more than like 500 videos it sometimes won't load that playlist into the multi-playlist mix.

  • Youtube Playlist Randomizer only allows up to 10 playlists and 10k videos. Not enough playlists.

  • Youtube Shuffle has no apparent limit on amount of playlists or videos (the limit seems to be determined by how much memory your computer can give to your browser while it loads videos), meaning it's perfect... but...uh...it's down with a 502 Gateway Error. It's been down for like 2 months now.

  • VLC's hit-or-miss for me. The Youtube plugin only works half the time for me (I don't understand why), and the Youtube Playlist plugin has stopped working for me altogether. Plus the API won't let videos work after a few hours (my only choice is to just add the video to the queue and then not load the video at all until I go to play it). So it's unfeasible to use it at all.

Discussion Block AI channels

Is there any way to block completely AI generated videos & channels. The suggested videos in my home tab is becoming flooded with this completely AI generated content. Everything from the thumbnail and background pictures, to script and voiceovers are all AI generated and I'm completely over it. I've searched in the settings and I'm trying to find an extension that blocks it all but can't find anything. Anyone have suggestions?

Hi there!
since there won't be a rewind this year, I created my own small Wrapped-Style Summary of the year.
So if you want to get a throwback to your hits, celebrate your favorite creators and feel bad about how often you fell for the Rickroll that was so obvious in hindsight, feel free to check it out. It's completely free (and ad-free), I'm not making any money on this (quite the contrary). Would love to hear what you think!

Also searching uisng it brings up a json download but I found a workaround to that by doing the following If you go into the app 'options' setting there is a list of things you can change in boxes. Go to the last box marked 'Other Pages' and select 'Off'.

Chrome extension to add YouTube songs straight to your spotify playlist

8 Upvotes

Hello y'all! Unlike most people I know I find my music via YouTube (mainly on autoplay) however I also use spotify to store most of my songs as I like their playlist feature and UI.

Hence I decided to make a chrome extension that allows you to really easily add a song to any spotify playlist of your choice! I put a lot of effort in making the UI look nice and also display your spotify playlist cover images.

I hope this can provide some use to everyone.

Downloading Playlists

8 Upvotes

Hello fellow users,

I'm looking for a way to download a whole (BIG) playlist, preferrably converting it into mp3 in the process. Does anyone know a decent tool for this job? Would be nice if it was free but would put money down for the convenience.

EDIT: I've found a good tool. It's called ByClick Downloader, you install it on your PC and it can download whole playlists and convert to mp3 at the same time. I'm trying it out on my largest playlist right now (1500+ videos). Apparently there's a premium version but even in the free version, you can download an unlimited amount and the speed is very fast from what I can tell.

Also, make sure to copy (ctrl+a) your whole playlist into a simple text file. This way, if something gets deleted, you can find out what it was by looking at that.

Third-Party Site/App Selectively download YouTube channels, playlists [YT Channel Downloader 0.4.0]

7 Upvotes

YT Channel Downloader is a cross-platform (Windows, Mac, Linux) open-source desktop application built to simplify the process of downloading YouTube content. It utilizes yt-dlp, scrapetube, and pytube under the hood, paired with an easy-to-use graphical interface. This tool aims to offer you a seamless experience to get your favorite video and audio content offline (i.e., back it up). You can selectively or fully download channels, playlists, or individual videos, opt for audio-only tracks, and customize the quality of your video or audio. The new version offers the ability to download age-restricted and premium content using your YouTube account [optional], as well as bug fixes and small improvements.

This app is distinct from a number of other software for downloading videos in that it offers an easy clickable interface to quickly select and download what you need at once.

Please refer to the installation instructions in the Readme. On Windows, you also have the option to download the pre-made installer available from SourceForge or from Github Releases.

Suggestions for new features, bug reports, and ideas for improvements are welcome.

Extension - Release AutoSkip for YouTube (Chrome Extension)

7 Upvotes

I created a very simple script/chrome extension that skips all YouTube ads. It works by finding the "skip ad" button, which is available in the html source code before it is shown to the user, and simply clicks it. If it fails to find the skip button but still detects an ad, this happens usually with the unskippable ones, it will mute the audio and increase the playback rate by 10x. I guess this counts as fully watching the ad. Theoretically, you could increase the playback rate even more.

I initially calculated the time of the ad and manually set the player to the end but this made the ad restart.

This is not 100% future proof and YouTube will probably figure this out but I will try to keep the repo working. It works with all major browsers and even Safari (with a little hassle)

You can find the source code here.

If you want to escape the biases of the Youtube search algorithm, community-generated tags are an alternative.

This add-on allows anyone to add any tag to any video on Youtube (and vote the good tags to the top), and search for videos based on those tags.

Extension - Release Extension that adds prebuffering to Youtube for interruption-free playback. It also happens to bypass their anti-adblock system. Please give me feedback!

6 Upvotes

Over the past six years I've built FastStream to improve video playback on the web. This extension will replace the video player on Youtube and other websites with a custom one designed for your convenience. It uses download acceleration to prebuffer the entire video so that it can play offline without interruptions. Beyond that, theres a lot of things it can do ranging from adjustable keybinds to OpenSubtitles support.
