Hello,
We would like a program that would search YouTube for YouTube channels based on keywords, set subscriber range, channels commenting on a video and to see if they're not affiliated with a company.
We would like the GUI to be simple, where a user can import a txt file with all keywords, have the option to set a subscriber range, for example only search for channels above 500 subscribers and then a start/stop button. When the user presses stop or the search is complete we would like all channel links to be in a CSV non-duplicated.
Channel attribution(company affiliation):
To find out if a channel is affiliated with a network, the program will need to go to one of the channels videos and search the source for:
<meta name="attribution" content="djslash20%2Buser/">
For user: [login to view URL]
The content box will display the username.
----
If a channel doesn't have a username set up on their channel it shows the channel code set to their channel here: [login to view URL]
<meta name=attribution content=AgeqqBDuA608bpNRr9_FBw/>
For user: [login to view URL]
The content box shows their channel code-name.
----
Else if it was partnered with a network it would say something like:
<meta name="attribution" content="FullScreen/">
For user: [login to view URL]
The content box shows the name of the Network, as opposed to the channels set username or User ID.
Channels in video comments:
We would like the program to search video the comments of videos to find applicable people to message too, but going onto their channels and doing the checks.
Logic behind the program:
We would like the program when started to work through these logic checks (assuming we've set it to record channels above 1,000 subscribers):
1 - Search for channel(s) using the keywords given in the txt file in youtube search: [login to view URL]
2 - Click onto a channel above 1,000 subscribers: [login to view URL]
3 - Click onto a video they own in /videos ( if no videos return to search): [login to view URL]
4 - Open a users video and search to see if they're networked([login to view URL]), if they're not networked save the channel link to a csv or database. If they are linked, don't save and move to 5
5 - after a save or no save, search for applicable channels that have commented and repeat steps 2-4 for each channel found. When all channel(s) have been listed move to 6
6 - return to the original search in 2 and click on the next applicable channel listed and repeat steps 2-6.
Program will stop when it can't find any more channels or user presses stop and a CSV is exported.
The program will need to NOT add duplicate channel links.

Hi. I am a Senior .NET Developer living in Paris,
I have read your specifications and i want to realize your application.
i have already developed several applications which parse CSV, TXT, or DAT files and imported all their data into an SQL Database.
In my Folio you'ill find for example CSV Importer DB Tool i have develop in WPF Full MVVM using Sage API which allowed the user to select a folder, select several CSV files. and click to load them and calulate and preformat them before inserting into the SQlServer database.
That's why if you choose my bid i can customize this software to match with your need.
I invite you to see in my folio the kind of application i have realize for an idea.
You can contact me for any questions else.
Kind regards
I'm working on building my portfolio since I have recently finished a Computer Science BSc and this project seems ideal for my portfolio (hence the low pay rate).
I have been programming for about 8 years now (primarily in Java) and believe this task should be relatively simple to complete as I have moderate experience with back end web systems and contributed to a web crawler a few year ago.
Would the interface have to be written in VB or would you be open to changing that to Java or maybe even a web interface? (Purely because of my background in web and Java)
Another note; I'd be willing to do it for below the budget as I am really focusing on building my portfolio more than making money.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Jay.
