When the video is nearly finished this little box pops up prompting you about what video is going to play next, could we get a button to mark the current video as a favourite?

      I download the videos using jdownloader 2, I rename the video file and thumbnail to work with jellyfin then I set the title metadata. It’s usually quite manual but since I only download 2 to 4 videos a day it’s manageable.

      You could try tubearchivist plus tubearchivist-jf, which are supposed to pull YouTube videos then input metadata automatically.

      However, I don’t know why on rare occasions the plugin gets stuck and I need to manually trigger updates. But overall speaking, it saves a ton of time in manually importing the video. Also, they don’t seem to handle super long videos too well. I use them to archive 15-20 hours long video game movies and they often stop in the middle of processing, though it could be because my NAS is not powerful.
