procrastinator Wrote:Hey, just wanted to suggest the search against a user/channel feature again.
Thanks again for all the hard work. Great job on this plugin
ETA: This is wrong, i mean categories, not channel

Search against channel is something i hope to introduce in version 2.
Basically we have no channel support as it is, and i would like to add browsing support for it. But it isn't in the API, so i have to make a scraper.

And i really find scrapers for youtube really really annoying... Or rather, i find youtube really really annoying
Once we actually get browsing support for channels, there will be a search as well.
As for search users, if you just write a username in the normal search it will find videos by that user. It will also find videos with the username in the title so it isn't a perfect solution.
We are just worried about cluttering the interface with too many options. We need to have a good WAF as well, and too many options might do more harm than good in that respect.
Could you try just using the current search for searching for users, and see if it is sufficient?
If it isn't sufficient we will have to see if there is a good way to implement it, i just really don't want three "Search" folders like there is in YouTube3.
