Filter by title

[trade4599]

Is there a way - and I believe it would have to be done in function getVideoIdsWithLessQueries to filter videos by title so only videos containing a certain phrase would be included into the playlist?

This would have to be done with getVideoIds; getVideoIdsWithLessQueries retrieves videos IDs, and to then retrieve their title would cost 3 quota units per video, so 150 quota units per 50 videos. This is less efficient than adding on a search parameter in getVideoIds with no extra cost, keeping it at 100 quota units per 50 videos.

Thanks for the response - I will try it out.

Did this ever get added to the script?

No. The issue is still marked open.

I have added support for filtering by title on Channel/Playlist ID searches in PR #139. It's working for me in production with a Channel ID.
