I think i already lied when i title the thing. My original thought was to write some Python code that helps me uploading Youtube videos but of course this was already done a thousand times by people more competent than me. And Python is probably not the right language for that anyway.
So, change of plans.
What i want is a small program that helps me to keep track of my stuff. As i do mainly lets plays and spam that a lot i cannot say that i curate my individual videos a lot, sometimes i lose track or stuff is just untidy cause i am distracted.
-
detect which new videos don't have a proper description
-
detect which new videos are in no playlist
-
detect if a playlist is not in order
-
automatically add videos to playlist that have a specific tag
-
Order playlist by itself, or if that fails, at least give directions which items are not where they are supposed to be
Apparently its somewhat cumbersome to get any kind of access via the API calls, in my first preliminary trails it always wanted me to get a new access key via the browser, that was slightly annoying. If i cannot get this right i might want to do some kind of batch worker so i only need that to do once.
