Can anyone recommend a solution to host your own youtube library. something that is searchable, has titles and thumbnails, playlists, maybe even channels, searchable transcripts?
i’m thinkimg about something you can self host, maybe with a companion android app.
hope this is the right forum for this question, it’s my first time posting.


Jellyfin, though I don’t think you can search subtitles directly in jellyfin. You’d have to grep the srt or video file itself, if embedded.
Yep.
I keep the subtitles as external files (as well as internal to the video) to provide flexibility for different clients.
SRT are just text files, so standard desktop search tools work.
I’ve not seen a media player setup that can search subtitle text.
Something like this?

Neat! That may be what OP’s looking for
