Search inside the videos you've watched. Every word said in everything
you watch is kept on this Mac, and "What Was Said" in search finds the
moment and lands on the second. You don't have to remember the phrase
exactly — every word has to be in there, in any order, because nobody types
the sentence right. Only videos you genuinely watched are kept, it's capped
so it can never fill a drive, and it has its own switch and its own delete
button in Settings. Part of Telly Premium.
Lists that fill themselves. Give a list rules — these channels, these
words in the title, not those words, only what I haven't watched, posted in
the last week — and it re-runs them every time you open it. It reads its own
rules back to you in plain English as you set them.
Chapters under the picture. One block per chapter, as wide as it is
long, filling as you watch through it. Click any block to jump.
Subtitles stay on. Turn them on once and they're on for the next video
too. They stay off when a video hasn't got your language, rather than
turning up in one you can't read.
Levelling, in the bar under the video: quiet bits up, loud bits down, so
a phone-recorded talk followed by a studio-mastered sponsor read stops being
a volume-knob evening.
Copy Link, and Copy At 4:03 — a link that starts where you are.
Telly can open YouTube links. Click one anywhere on your Mac and it can
come here instead of a browser.
Back Up Everything, and Restore. One file with your subscriptions,
lists, history, groups, hidden videos and settings. Restoring only ever adds
— nothing already on the machine is removed, and restoring an old backup
can't wind your resume points backwards.
Copy Diagnostics, in Settings. Versions and counts, no titles, no
channels, no paths — and it goes to your clipboard and nowhere else. There's
no crash reporting in Telly, so this is the thing to paste into an email.
Try Again on a download that failed, and Save Them All on a list.
Search what you already have — watched, in a list, or on your disk.
Undo. Hiding a video, taking one out of a list, and deleting a whole
list can all be taken back. Clearing your history asks first, because that
one genuinely can't be.
A video that won't play now says why. Blocked in your country, private,
removed, members-only, age-restricted, a premiere that hasn't started, or
YouTube's bot check — each says what it means and whether trying again could
help. The full detail is one click away.
If something in Telly falls over, you get an explanation and a way back
instead of a white window.
The keyboard works everywhere, with a focus ring you can actually see,
and every button has a name VoiceOver can read.
Empty screens say why they're empty. An empty feed has four different
causes and "hit Refresh Feed" was the wrong advice for three of them.
About now credits yt-dlp, youtubei.js, shaka, Electron, React, SQLite,
SponsorBlock and FFmpeg, which do a great deal of the work.
