I would very much appreciate seeing a video going down the path of Dispute. Knowing the process form a creator as yourself would give us much more confidence that we are doing things right. Possibly include in that video the branches of situations that could occur? That would be INCREDIBLY VALUABLE just as this video was. The topic of helping us creators dig ourselves out of the hole is talked about, but no one goes into the details or the process.

[@hiimbrysinsmith2610]

Very true.

[@BrownsRUs]

Thank you for sharing this. It really help understand the copyright options and that there are more than one options

[@miniscenesgb]

Thanks Nolan, hugely helpful. I've had a couple of videos affected and I had no idea where to easily sort it out. Thanks for this

[@StephanieOdili]

same!! Thank you Nolan.

[@josephgilbert1864]

In the vein of this topic, would love to see a video on reaction channels and others like it

[@FreelancingwithFaith]

Thanks for sharing. I realized there are other options to do with it. We're still a little confused about songs though. Why covers are allowed and then those who do the covers claims a copyright from their cover while the original owner doesn't.

[@24X7CARZ]

Currently disputing a Content ID claim I received despite transforming the song and incorporating it into a new satirical work. Let’s see what happens after the 30-day dispute response window.

[@earthlydelights]

Very helpful! Thanks.

[@Akhlad]

04:34 it is possible to undo this after saving, there is an option to revert to the original version and you can get the trimmed section back.

[@guitar.forbeginners.withdave]

I've had a number of copyright claims from music companies on a number of my beginner guitar tutorials. They claim that I've used a melody from some such song. I know I haven't. So I check the part that they're claiming and as usual it's part of a chord progression, there is no meleody or tune to speak of. So I end up writing why they can't claim it. And usually what happens is the owners have 30 days to dispute my claim but the never do. Then I get an email saying there is no copyright claim any more. In fact, my latest upload has a copyright claim and as of today they have 18 days left to respond to my claim. I've had a few claims like that recently and won them. I have other tutorials with a copyright claim that I don't dispute because I am teaching a song and that's fair enough.

[@LizsLizardBuns]

Are you gonna show one with the Dispute path? Just so we have a guideline of what to say and how to proceed?

[@chriscoughlan5221]

hi think i have just watched your video to the end, and i already followed your steps, regarding triming out the parts which were copyrighted, and got contacted again with another copyright claim!! to remove another part of a video, which i did! the third time, i had the video removed!!! is this three strkes and your out??

[@xjet]

The problem is that (in my experience) if a video has material that is falsely claimed under the content-ID system the algorithm discriminates against it so it will never perform well. Even once the claim is relelased, the video will never get the normal number of views so it can be a huge amount of wasted work when you're a full-time KZbinr. What's even worse is that sometimes, in the case of bogus claims, the claimant doesn't actually release the video but simply fails to respond and that means it takes the full 30 days before the claim to be removed -- meaning that whatever revenue that vid might have earned won't be paid out for an extra month. I license *all* the music I use in my videos but I'm still regularly penalized by YT's flawed content-ID system or by bogus claims. Why can't creators with a proven track-record of not abusing copyright be given a little more weight than some no-name who's chancing their luck by filing a bogus copyright claim in the hope it won't be disputed?

[@VSGLife]

THIS IS SO RELEVANT TO SOOOO MANY PEOPLE‼️ 👏🏽

[@josiahisalive]

Question? When are the best days to live stream videos? And what do I talk about for an hour? Lol my main problem with livestreaming is figuring out how to keep it interesting

[@NamiNohara]

If I use your videos clips in my channel, do you give me a copyright ? Just asking 😅

[@bongkosolbadminton]

Same question 😅

[@DetlefRecktenwald-Healing]

If a creator is adding a NOTE LIKE "DO NOT COPY WITHOUT CONSENT IN WRITING" I would not just use it, I would ask for permission in writing. Think about it.! Spend the money to get everything you need to go in production, spend many hours, days, weeks, see yourself , your work done, Now ask yourself, Who Are You?

[@alexparkerTHINK]

It's all about transformation! If you simply straight rip the content from the channel then that is not allowed. But if you compile information, comment, or review it then you can post pretty much anything.

[@Oopsie_kpop]

Can you guys please tell me something?? Do we get copyright video for live video as well?? One of my video is a live video of a group that I screenshot and uploaded in my channel but I ended up getting copyright. Though I didn't get any email. So how am I suppose to remove that copyright? 😢 I thought it's ok to upload live since I recorded it on my own😢.

[@DetlefRecktenwald-Healing]

@@Oopsie_kpop Click on copyright , next click on review issues, follow the information as it tells you the copyright claim . Tip, before someone else is uploading on your channel, watch the entire video, make sure it is ok, as you the owner is responsible. Read on KZbin about what we can show and say and what we cannot. read about copywriter

[@MarcPlaysPiano]

For cases when non-copyrighted music gets flagged...would raising (or lowering) the pitch of the music by a half step or so be enough to avoid the flag? I wonder if anyone here has tried that...

I continually get an ineligible on all videos. It's the intro song I use and I have the licence to use it. But despite my disputing the claim everytime and always winning, I continually get hit. Frankly it's a ball ache Is there anything I can do to stop the claims? I contacted KZbin but got an automated reply about copyright which was zero help. Any suggestions would be great thanks

[@MrAshRobertsonUK]

If you do trim your video or amend it using their tools, do you keep the views you have already got on the video, or does the counter go back to zero? Thanks for the great video! 😀

[@chriscoughlan5221]

Where do i start? i´ll try to keep it brief!! i copy+pasted a video from youtube recently, and edited it to be uploaded as a youtube short! i thought no Problem. About 1 hour later, i was told it has copyright material in it. So i clicked on the details, to be told that between 0.35-0.51 has copyright material, so i naturally thought that if i edit out this chunk then the video will be copyright free!!! Then this morning again another copyright issue, this time they said between 9secs -35 secs it was copyrighted, so again i edited that chunk out, and thought that will be the end of that!!! then today, i have been told that my video has been totally removed!!!!??? i am stunned!!! Does this mean that videos with copyright material cant be edited??

[@nabeelkhan2632]

if i upload clips from your (or anyone else) video and give credit to you, will it be copywright claim?

If I have a song license is there a way to let youtube know that I own the rights to the song so it doesn't get flagged every time I use it?

[@3SonsRC]

HELP. I have had No ability to rip shorts from My Own videos for 8 months now... The Remix drop down is available but can only remix music, cannot create shorts video, no option. 1) I only use music from KZbin Studio App "Attribution Not Required" though 8 months ago when this issue started I noticed when KZbin runs the "checks" KZbin will add Liscence (Liscence Added) to the video I'm assuming for the music, but this has never effected before and I'm using the same music as 10 months ago and those videos I can make a shorts video. 2) Video and clip sampling is ON but I "could have" turned this off for a moment and then turned it back on, sampling has now been back on for many months but all new videos still same issue. 3) as far as I know if KZbin adds a Liscence I should still be able to make a short from my own video?? Yes I use music, have been for years, and last year used the same music with no issues. I'm not using copyright music. 4) this has cost my channel so kuch momentum because I can't make shorts from my new videos. Please help Just Search 3 Sons RC on KZbin if you need to refrence.

[@johnclay7644]

informative video

[@RorysRamblings]

The amount of times I've had fake copyright claims on my videos and have disputed.

[@MarcPlaysPiano]

There's an inequity in how creators are treated when there's an alleged copyright violation. I just made a Scriabin video that got flagged for supposed copyright issues, when the music I played is public domain. It should be on the accuser to prove violation, not on the content creator. Also, the content creator's video shouldn't be automatically demonetized for up to 30 days while the accuser decides how to respond. Also, if content creator channels can be deleted for "fraudulent disputes" (as KZbin threatens when allowing the dispute), the accuser should be punished for fraudulent accusations of copyright violations. No? Of course I'm not monetized anyway so it doesn't really matter at this point, but it's the PRINCIPLE of the thing, lol. I just made a video that got flagged for supposed copyright issues, when the music I played is 100% in the public domain as the composer (Scriabin) is long dead. I'm disputing , of course.

[@chrisluckhardt]

Hard disagree! I’ve been fighting rampant copyright theft from my Instagram and KZbin channels recently and the automated and manual reporting process is fantastic. The onus for using media that isn’t copyrighted should 100% be the creator’s responsibility. The current system is one of the few things IG/Meta and KZbin/Google do very well.

[@MarcPlaysPiano]

@@chrisluckhardt Interesting to have a view from the other side of the issue--thanks. I suspect we don't disagree on everything, though! Producers should not be claiming copyright for works they obviously don't have rights over, like works of composers who have been dead for over a century. If they do so repeatedly they should face some consequence. This is a common issue in the classical music world [edit: search "TwoSet copyright" for a more high-profile example]. These accusers they don't seem to get any penalty for their obviously false copyright claims. Instead, the creator needs to file a dispute, get threatened to have the channel deleted if some unnamed person deems the dispute "fraudulent", and then deal with up to 30 days' wait (and demonetization on the video) for the accuser to "review". Now, I'm sure you're cool and not making specious copyright claims all over the place. And I'm sure there's no "perfect" solution. But there needs to be some means to keep bad actors honest.

[@chrisluckhardt]

​@@MarcPlaysPiano That'a all fair and thanks for the insight - I don't have first-hand experience with classical music or public domain copyright issues. A penalty for too many false copyright claims would be a good step toward fairness. I don't want people or businesses generating revenue off my content without a license, equitable agreement, or both. I was recently featured on Inside Edition, NY Post, and other media outlets for filming an abandoned McDonald's on a remote Alaska island. It's been a major time investment dealing with all the copyright thefts across all social platforms! But I let a few slide because they were for educational purposes and Fair Use applied.

[@MarcPlaysPiano]

Cool, and yeah, that sounds like a pain to sort through all that. Good luck with your future videos!! 👊

[@dandtintennessee7675]

I recently got a copyright claim using an original song I recorded myself to use in my video. The song it claims I borrowed a melody from is from some publishing company I've not heard of and I was never able to find the song anywhere. Makes me wonder if there may be something fishy going on. I Contested it and as of yet have not gotten any feedback. Will see. I've used the song in other videos with no issue and also given it to a other much much larger channel to use in their videos as needed and they've not gotten a claim. Weird stuff. By the way, I have a whole play list of simple stuff I've recorded that anyone is welcome to use.
