Stability and bug fixes
I’ve added a LOT of features in a short amount of time. Bugs are stacking up, and things aren’t very stable. :-/ I’d like to take a week to really dig into bugs and stabilize things before adding more features. I have much better tracking of issues and errors now, but I need to squash a lot of these bugs.

Auto Fetch Imported Data
I need to do more backend work for this, and that’s coming as part of the bigger work to allow more videos per channel. Once that’s in place all of it will auto refresh.

Fully suppress video controls, end cards, and captions
Whenever I change channels the video controls and automatic captions appear on screen for a little bit despite having all the relevant settings to disable them. The video controls also appear when I move my mouse over the video. If I see the end of the video, the end cards that link to another video also automatically appear. This does not impair my use or enjoyment of the site, but I think if you were able to suppress these fully then it would be a much more immersive experience.

Exclude shorts / include all videos in Custom Channels
I love that you added the ability to exclude shorts / import all videos when importing individual channels. Could we see this also with Custom Channels composed of several playlists/ channels? I’d love to be able to exclude shorts / import all videos on an individual basis in those setups

An option to enable an end of broadcast day that activates at 12:00 AM
As the title says, I would love for there to be an optional feature that adds an end of broadcast day video playing the U.S. anthem (or maybe the anthem of whatever country the viewer is from) at 12:00 AM

Imported Channels
Thank you for this app, love it so much. I do have one Issuer, my Hisense TV doesn’t allow me to import channels on that TV, so i am stuck with the default channels. If you could do it such that all import channels are saved to those accounts that logged in with their account, then perhaps imported channels can persists across devices. This would be a welcomed fix. I hope my request will be met with a kind soultion. Thank you

Change video order for channels/playlists
Is it possible to load the videos from the channel and then order them oldest to newest (or for that to be an option)? Watching a webseries in reverse order is fine if there is no throughline, but it can be a bit odd seeing multipart videos coming through with the last part first.

I would really like there to be an option to enable that CRT whine. Maybe with some very quiet white noise if you want. It would be perfect as something to go with the scanline effect

Not able to add playlists to channels anymore.
In the past, I was able to just grab the link of different playlists and add them to a custom channel. Unfortunately, now every time I do it, it claims that the playlist is a private playlist. Not sure if it's a bug or something on my end, but I've tested it with a playlist that I was able to grab in the past, and they're currently not parsing.

Import ALL videos?
This is a fantastic product. Well done. Is there any possible way to set this up so that when you import a channel or a playlist without using the bookmarklet, it will import all of the videos that are within the playlist or the entire channel? Currently, when I use the instant importer and just drop in a playlist or a channel, I only get the most recent fifteen videos or so. This is a shame because I'm trying to create a custom Sesame Street channel for my son, and I want to combine the videos that are in about five different playlists. f I add all five of those playlists, I'll only get around fifteen videos from each, when a lot of these playlists actually have hundreds of videos in them… That's a lot of content I would hate for him to miss out on, but I love the idea of having a unified master playlist that has everything in it.

Hey there! I typically watch long form videos for my channels but many creators make Youtube Shorts which don’t fit the scaling or vibe of Channel Surfer. Would we be able to implement a feature to filter these out? Thanks for your consideration!😄

Custom channel reordering & ability to hide default channels
1. Reorder custom channels — Let users drag/arrange their custom channels in whatever order they want. As people add more channels and make changes, they need a way to organize them intentionally rather than being stuck with creation order. 2. Hide/disable default channels — Give paid subscribers the option to hide the built-in default channels so they can have a view that shows only their custom channels. Not deleting them permanently, just toggling visibility.

Bug Report - Watched Videos Not Importing
I couldn’t find a specific place to report bugs on the site, but this is a serious problem for me. Whenever I use the bookmarklet to import channels, it always skips over videos that I’ve already watched, even when I uncheck the “hide videos I’ve already watched” checkbox. I’ll be happy to provide more information if needed.
