[Feature Request] store notes/extra information in database

Hi,

thank you for the great piece of software. I'm testing it out now and i have a question:

Is it possible to add a textfield / box to store notes?

Motivation: i intend to use this program to store a lot of cooking and baking videos. A lot of these videos don't put the recipe in the description box but put a link to their own website. If Tubearchivist would have a extra comments field/box where we can manually input notes then we can store the information alongside the video. That way we can be 100% sure that when a channel (together with the website) goes offline the extra information is retained...

thanks again

Yes, I can see this being useful for that. Makes sense for your example, just wondering if there are other usecases for that feature? Like, when you have a generic Notes section per video, what else could you use it for?

commented

True, my usecase is specific and i cannot seem to immediately think of other uses for such a field... One thing i was thinking of was tagging the videos with one or more labels for easier filtering and searching (creating a playlist is sometimes too limiting)

So just thinking out loud: using this comment box not only for notes, but also for hashtags to label/tag videos? And some sort of filtering system based on those tags?

I've put it on the roadmap, we'll revisit that in the future.

For me labeling or tagging would be a great help - because I've start using it for our family in this regard I could label ..... mom, dad, son and lot more to find.
