YouTube and copyright music... Has something changed ?

_Jimlad_ · 28 Dec 2015 at 16:15

Every year I mash all my mobile footage together and make a 45 min video of my kids. Add purchased muisc to it and upload to YouTube, share the link with close friends and family.

This year it seems the video only plays for me from YouTube. Everyone else gets " this video is not available"

I also noticed 2014 and 2013 videos no longer play for anyone else but me. I am guessing it's due to copyright music ?

Link above works for me as I am signed in to YouTube. The video is also marked as public

Working fine here.

Youtube put strikes against your account for music copyright, wouldn't stop the video from playing I don't think.

Are your family abroad? I find my videos often get banned in different countries if there is any music, even with background music on the TV etc. They all work in the UK though.

Wft !

Ok it seems to not be working within Facebook. I wonder if they have copyright laws !

PS. a 46 minute video to send your family? This reminds me of the 80s when everyone would secretly groan when a relative would get a slide projector out at a family gathering.

Ok just shared the same link from OP over email and get the same "this video is not available"

Seriously anyone got any ideas ? I am using the same link above and that is not working on fb or email (UK contacts)

Works fine my end.

Not available for me. This is on my mobile logged in.

Music infringement would usually show a specific copyright notice or just strip the audio alone.

Hmm I have done some more testing and it seems to be mobiles?

Does not run on tablet app or chrome in mobile mode but them works when desktop is requested so it is a mobile app issue.

You could try using Vimeo instead of Youtube.

On my iPad via the link you posted it failed and advised me to "tap to retry". It worked after that.

P.S, that trampoline looks awesome, is it built in to the ground ?
