I don't even want an "algorihtm" per se. Just search, show results and a download or paly. That's it.

Freetube but if you want HD you have to separate out the video and audio downloads then combine them after. A little annoying but it does have download right there in the client

Dang really? Guess I just haven’t needed it in a while
Since youtube api won't help with this someone needs to build a video index and a good search algorithm on top. Would be nice to be able to search through indexed subtitles too.
