Channel name in Youtube search result

MightyDog007

Can you add the channel name in the Youtube video results tile please?
It would help a lot identify relevant search results. At the moment, it's like you wouldn't list the URL in a regular search result. We don't know from who the link is from in Youtube.
At the moment, instead of using Kagi (which I pay for) to search Youtube, I go to Youtube directly unfortunately.
Thank you!

Any video search will benefit

Adding to the request: Would there be any possible way to let us promote, block and lower YouTube channels like we can do with other search results? YouTube by itself is an enormous library of video content, spanning from the absolute lowest quality to the absolute highest quality things.

If they have an API that could allow for this, by integrating to Kagi, it could be a paid add-on.

Came here to post this request myself, and found you beat me to it. 🙂 So I'll just add my experience for context:

There are a lot of reposts on YouTube. For example, if I'm looking for trailers for a new video game, I generally want the official video, not a re-upload from a gaming news site, secondary promotional video from a partner, or commentary/reaction videos. Consider this screenshot of video results for Final Fantasy VII Rebirth:

Here are three videos from three different sources. Only the first one is from the primary source, which is the official Final Fantasy channel. The second is from PlayStation, and the third is from IGN. This is not clear from the presentation in Kagi.

I noticed that some videos do already display the account name, so I guess this is either a bug or an API limitation like the one mentioned here about the upload date: https://kagifeedback.org/d/1849-youtube-not-all-videos-have-date-listed

Fingers crossed that this can be enabled for all videos!

The number of views could also help determining what is an official video and what isn't
