How the fuck y’all use copyrighted music on your videos and don’t get copyright strikes?
Fucking piece of shit YouTube, Facebook and Twitch will give me copyright strikes for playing even my own music (because is published in digital stores). And is not like I’m famous or shit or my music is known worldwide, yet I see people using tracks from well known established bands and their videos are not muted or taken down.
What’s the secret? What am I missing?
You have to tag them in your description, so when it does get flagged. It will recognize you credited the artist. Then whenever someone watches your video, the artist will get the monetization credit and you won’t.
I started just searching “Copyright free music” and I use that for all my stuff now. Much less of a hassle. The artists still request you tag them, so you don’t get hit with a strike.
Need to check how the fuck I can do that on live streams, cause I’ve been wanting to do live playthroughs of my songs and I got flagged immediately and my livestream cut off because of it
I believe, it’s in stream labs or something where you can play, songs and genres that are approved and your stream won’t get shut down. I don’t have a PC, I stream on my Mac and it’s annoying I can’t use some of the cool stuff because it’s all for PC. (I’m on PS5) but are you using twitch? There are other apps you can use also that will allow you to use music but I think you have to pay a subscription. I do it the poor man’s way and just open up the copyright free music and play it in another tab lol, I have a good mic so it’s just a subtle music in the background. I’ll upgrade my set up in the future. When I get home I can send you some of the music programs that allow you to stream music.
I’ve used Pretzel which supposedly plays “stream safe” songs, and some songs still get flagged from time to time. Is really shitty. I remember even Metallica got a copyright strike on their twitch live stream (LMAO @ Lars)
Someone could be flagging your stuff manually, I’ve played copywriten stuff multiple times and haven’t been flagged.
haters gonna hate
AHAHAHA GET FUCKED NERD.
The only one I know for YouTube is to quote the fair act copy right law, or something along those lines.
As for streams, not sure.
The only thing I know is that is has to be transformative in nature, in order to avoid copyright.
How your supposed to avoid copyright on your own content is beyond me.
I would just make sure your monetization settings are in line with the music you play. That can also be why you are getting hit. You can’t make money off a stream or YT video is you use copy written music. So it has to be shut off/forgone.
Is really stupid cause services just state “The music you are playing is copyrighted” and am like, “Yeah bitch, BY ME!” But they do not provide any way for you to submit proof you own the copyrighted material.
Do you use obs as your platform?
You have to use the second audio track for music so Twitch will remove if after your stream ends.
Twitch now allows copyrighted music as long as it’s on a separate audio track so it can be removed after.
As said above , if its your own music and you tag it , then it should technically notify you and monetization goes to you . fuck knows how they do that .
Royalty free is limited , but there is some good ones to use.
