Somewhat useful Intel for people who make YouTube videos

Recommended Posts

Hello, so i'll start first with a story.

Basically, i have a starting series on my channel which is a essentially: Artist - The Collection

These videos pick 5 of the artists songs to reupload.

The whole idea is to trick the person into thinking it's a new album :jew:

 

Anyways, my first collection video went alright however i had problems with my second.

All five songs got copyrighted, which is understandable (this only meant that they was the ones earning $$$ for the video).

It said: Viewing Restrictions: None

This is correct until you actually go onto the video from another account or browser.

YouTubes some error and doesn't say anything more.

 

I got in contact with support and they essentially explained that some artist's label(s) have complicated setups for copyright.

This can mean that YouTube just picks the first copyright notification and uses that for the metadata/general data for the video.

For example, you could have hundreds of songs in a video and not be able to tell which is the one causing the problem.

What I've gathered is that this is kinda rare and the artist(s) usually have to be in multiple labels, etc.

 

So essentially, just be careful when uploading multiple songs for a video

Hope this was helpful :)
