Sort YouTube Playlist by Duration (Advanced) 🎧

https://github.com/L0garithmic/ytsort

Never hand-sort a playlist again. This userscript keeps YouTube playlist management sane by forcing YouTube to sort playlist items by video duration. It was a slog to get here, but the end result is a battle-tested script that survives YouTube's ever-shifting UI and lazy-loading antics. Chrome is the only browser confirmed to work right now. ⚙️

Highlights ✨

  • Sorts any YouTube playlist by duration in ascending or descending order.
  • Handles modern and legacy playlist layouts without user intervention.
  • Fully loads long playlists by auto-scrolling and verifying video counts before sorting.
  • Injects streamlined controls into the playlist page with status logging and copy-to-clipboard support.
  • Defensive retry logic with detailed progress updates so you always know what it is doing.

Requirements 🧰

  • Chrome with a userscript manager (Tampermonkey or Violentmonkey) OR load as an unpacked extension.
  • A YouTube playlist that you have permission to edit.

Installation 🚀

Option 1: Userscript (Recommended for auto-updates)

  1. Install a userscript manager extension in Chrome (Tampermonkey recommended).
  2. Open the extension/yt.js file from this repository and copy its contents.
  3. In Tampermonkey, create a new script and paste the copied code.
  4. Save the script. It will run automatically on YouTube once enabled.

Option 2: Unpacked Chrome Extension

  1. Download or clone this repository.
  2. Open Chrome and navigate to chrome://extensions/.
  3. Enable "Developer mode" in the top right.
  4. Click "Load unpacked" and select the extension folder from this repository.
  5. The extension will now run automatically on YouTube.

Usage ▶️

  1. Open any editable YouTube playlist in Chrome.
  2. Expand the "Sort Playlist by Duration" panel the script injects below the playlist header.
  3. Pick the sort order: Shortest First or Longest First.
  4. Choose whether to load the entire playlist or only the currently visible videos.
  5. Click Sort and let the script do the painful part:
    • It reloads the playlist content, scrolls to load everything, and double-checks counts.
    • Once stable, it simulates the drag-and-drop operations to reorder entries.
  6. Watch the log to follow progress or copy it if you need to troubleshoot.

Known Limitations ⚠️

  • Chrome-only for now. Other browsers might work, but they have not been validated yet.
  • Gigantic playlists can still stress YouTube's UI; the script keeps retries finite to avoid infinite loops.
  • YouTube UI changes may break selectors. If that happens, file an issue or tweak the selectors in yt.js.

Troubleshooting 🧯

  • Make sure Tampermonkey reports that the script is active on youtube.com.
  • Reload the playlist page if the controls do not appear.
  • Clear the log and try again if YouTube looks stuck; occasionally YouTube blocks drag events until the page is refreshed.
  • Open the browser console for additional errors; the script logs detailed messages that can be copied with the on-page button.

Contributing 🤝

Pull requests fixing edge cases or adding cross-browser support are very welcome. If you encounter a breakage caused by a YouTube change, please describe the playlist size, layout, and steps to reproduce it.
