If I search for a video, say the old tv series Matlock, I get a whole screen full of matches. If I pick one and play it the NEXT to play cone from some deep and mysterious place in youtube. It would be great if next cam from that origin set of search results.

The current time NEXT choices seem random, unrelated and chaotic and I have to admit that it uncovers some interestING things. Like from Matlock to Sid Cedar or Bevwrly Hillbillies or even stranger results.

I would like a "play all" option to be available with any set of search results.

The NEXT video is not chosen by NewPipe but it is just the first video of the suggestions provided by YouTube.

Would #2583 suit your needs? It would provide a way to select multiple videos from every list. Please leave some feedback there.

@drji3m Right now you could probably just use the enqueue options you get when ypu long-click a video. Or even create playlists for later.

Not exactly sure what the issue is here. Is this a complaint about how useless Youtube's auto-play is? Could you restate your problem please.
