YouTube disabled my Amnesia videos for monetisation?

[Xalabus]

Hey Oink, thanks for your reply!


I'm afraid the only options when YouTube flags you video like this is to either prove you have commercial usage rights or prove that you don't need them. Seeing as I can't do either, I'm stuck with my videos being disabled for monetisation

It's a big shame because I'm sure, as the other forum post said, that Frictional Games wouldn't have a problem with it.. but there is actually no way to contact them and prove to YouTube that this is the case :/

To be honest I'm quite angry with YouTube as I've spent time playing through something, recording it editing it, and uploading it yet they flag it up and stop me earning literally a few pennies for the effort.

Thanks for you reply though, it's much appreciated!

See heres the issue with youtube. Even if you where to show proof that you are allowed to post up the video (with written rights by the company) youtube can still deny your video for Monetization. I have had the same issue with youtube in the past with such games as Terraria and MineCraft which you can easily find Both company's giving full permission to upload you playing there games even if you are partnered with youtube.

The reason why you get denied may not be because the company said (no we don't want that) but because when it comes down to it. Youtube has control over what they want you to get paid for and what they don't want you to get paid for. If they feel you shouldn't get paid for the video. Then they deny it. It's screwed up as hell but you learn to deal with it.


I've had at least 8 or 9 of my videos be denied and a good portion of them where MineCraft and Terraria which I had even sent Youtube the rights that both Re-Logic and Mojang give for you to do so and they still denied it.
