en Wow this is so helpful! I was trying to find a video where this guy talked about something specific, but I couldn't find it as they have hundreds of videos and post everyday, sometimes multiple times a day, so it would have been hours of research. NOT ANYMORE! Thank you so much I was able to pin point the exact video and time stamp too!

en It only downloads the first 30 or so videos. You can't change the settings otherwise and the date function doesn't work. HOWEVER, you can import a list of videos and it will download them and then a quick script can convert them into readable formats. I'll send him a tip. Thanks

en Doesn't let you change the date range. Only the ~30 latest videos can be searched.

en Ran it against a channel with hundreds of videos (@DavidCanterbury), but it only searched about a dozen videos. So I reloaded the page and scrolled to the bottom of the channel (which took a while), and ran it again; On the second time, it still only searched about a dozen, but this time it produced a blank file as the output. I'm not sure what's going on with it. Two stars because the first time searching, it did work a little bit.

So I remembered one very good joke from a Pitch Meetings episode "So is this an homage or a ripoff? Well with which one we dont get sued? Hommage. Sure that one then. Its a mirage." I googled and googled and went crazy because I could not find the episode. It didn't really matter - I did not need it for anything. I just wanted to know what episode it was from. And not knowing drove me crazy. 1 minute with this extension I have piece of mind again. Thank you so much!
