❓ FAQ ❓
─────────────────
Q: Why was the automation functionality removed?
A: We found that a simple copy-paste is more reliable and often faster than complex automation, especially since tools like NotebookLM now support batch URL pasting.

Q: How do I batch import YouTube links to NotebookLM?
A: The key is to select the "Website" source type instead of "YouTube". This treats the YouTube links as standard URLs, enabling batch import.

Q: Does it support other browsers?
A: It is currently developed for Chrome, but it should also work on Edge and other Chromium-based browsers.

Q: What if the extracted links are not accurate enough?
A: You can manually edit or delete unwanted links in the preview mode before copying.
