Adds a search bar to YouTube Playlists to allow for searching for specific videos without the need to do a page search.

This is Inchbrayock's version of the original YouTube Playlist Search Bar (original: https://gf.zukizuki.org/en/scripts/517253-youtube-playlist-search-bar) that overhauled the search bar functionality. Setnour6 is the author that published this version of the userscript on behalf of Inchbrayock. If anyone wants to contribute to this userscript to enhance this version or to make an all-new improved one as a fork of this script, then by all means go ahead.

Differences from the original:

  • @channelname shows videos only from that uploader
  • UI overhaul
  • Searches videos while typing
  • Removed search icon to better accommodate the "searching video while typing" feature
  • A bit of code cleanup

But why upload it as a new userscript?

There were some big changes that were made that

Like the original, this does NOT work with YouTube Shorts or when the playlist video filter is set to "Shorts".

Tested on Microsoft Edge. Not known to be tested on any other browsers.

This was made out of hobby-ism, for fun, and also because no similar feature seemed to exist anywhere.
