   I built the IMDB of YouTubers to help people find new quality channels▲6

   YouTube is full of quality content but it is sometimes hard to find it so I created a website where you can rate and review channels and that helps you discover new ones. The goal is to make a platform like IMDb or Rotten Tomatoes but for YouTube channels. I want to go the opposite direction to YouTube which for instance removed the dislikes on videos and has limited search capabilities.

I offer you different new ways to discover content on the website: Detailed filters (topic, avg duration, type of video,…

    I packaged decade of video infra battle scars into tools for AI agents▲7

    Hi HN, I’m Ashu, founder of VideoDB. I’ve spent a big chunk of my life building video infrastructure. Not video creation. Video plumbing. The stuff you only learn after production breaks: timebases, VFR, keyframes, audio sync drift, container quirks, partial uploads, live streams, retries, backpressure, codecs, ffmpeg flags, cost blowups, and “why is this clip unseekable on one player but fine on another”. This week we shared VideoDB Skills, a skill pack that lets AI agents call those infra primitives directly, instead of you wiring pipelines with screenshots plus FFmpeg glue. Repo:…
