// Run this JS snippet on a playlist page to extract the video ids:
var elms = document.querySelectorAll("[id='video-title']");
var expr = /\?v=(.+)&list/;
var vids = [];
for(var i = 0; i < elms.length; i++) 
       vids.push((expr.exec(elms[i].href) ?? [null, null])[1])
console.log(vids.filter(x => x))
