youtube api - Can I search for channels which contain at least one video? -

i searching channels against youtube api v3:

/search?part=id&type=channel&q=searchquery 

problem: returns channels contain 0 (0) videos.

i can see 2 possible approaches:

1. use &order=videocount parameter, sorts desc returned channels number of videos contain.
2. run second query search videos in each channel, limit &maxresults=1 returned amount of videos one, , parse result.

i don't want take approach 1, changes default &order=relevance, believe fine-tuned youtube return relevant channels first [still, result may contain channels without videos, makes youtube's algorithm calculating relevance questionable].

approach 2 causes lot of additional load, isn't i'd want do.

is there way solve in elegant way don't see right now?

approach 2 makes sense , assuming you'll use paging, can run second query need, instead of trying run query against whole result set. should fine.
