YouTube Content Matches / Copyright Issues
If you have a Paranormal gameplay video on YouTube and have received a take-down request or copyright strike, reply in this discussion and I'll do all I can to help you get rid of it and set things straight.
These new copyright rules on YouTube are horrible and I will do anything and everything in my power to make sure it doesn't affect any of you. I fully support gameplay of Paranormal being posted by whoever wants to. EVERYONE has my permission to monetize off of these Paranormal videos, too.
And if YouTube claims a song is being illegally used in your Paranormal video, I can confirm right now that the song is not in Paranormal. Every song used in Paranormal was obtained legally and has the proper rights to be used and distributed freely, being either public domain or created specifically for the game.
Again, if you have any issues with YouTube blocking your Paranormal videos, reply here and link the video. I will do all I can to help. Thanks!

Hey Matt hows it going? Can you help me? I got an e-mail regarding my lets play of the 1.3.5 version of the game. Basically it says that:

"Your video is blocked globally.
Here are the details:
Visual content administered by: 24:26
Formula One Management"

Its at the bit at the end where the screens all white & static after the house blows up & you can hear the sirens.

I mean Formula One? That can't be right can it???
My YouTube channel is same here I use here.
Video link is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJM_Tl5kcLc&feature=youtu.be
Just incase YT decide on these, heres the link of the playlist I've done: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDB9F1ECE516C3BA5

Thanks again :-)

You have my complete and total consent to using all and any footage of my game, Paranormal, in your YouTube videos. All content in the game is either public domain, royalty-free and legally obtained, or created specifically for the game itself. Any Content ID matches or copyright claims are false and/or mistaken and should be removed immediately. I can vouch for the video's owner's integrity and rights to display both the video and audio of the game Paranormal. <--- When you write to youtube to fix this issue, that is my legal permission for you to use the video and my statement to them regarding this mismatched contentID copyright crap. Be sure to tell them the game's creator said that. Let me know if you have any more trouble and I'll do all I can to help.

Hi there. I have uploaded gameplay footage from your video. Youtube notified me about a content match of the audio used during a video sequence. I have disputed the claim and supplied a (partial) quote of your post and a link to this thread. I hope that will be enough. I just thought I'd let you know about that. Thank you for making paranormal, giving people permission to upload video footage and even helping out in cases like this. You're awesome! I'm really looking forward to playing the unreal engine 4 remake/update!

If needed, I will gladly send them an email vouching for you.

Yeah, it seems that Google (I'm assuming it's Google doing this) is making tons of false claims based on Josh Woodward's music. He set up a page on his website to help resolve YouTube's false claims: http://www.joshwoodward.com/contentid/
If the above web page doesn't help, I'll send YouTube a message to verify that you're allowed to post this song, and I'll contact Josh Woodward to get him to (hopefully) send YouTube the same message. Let me know if you have any questions.

Good thing I saw this. When we finally get our channel up and running, I had planned to ask you for permission to use your game for one of our first videos. I didn't want all the legal hang ups! :D I'll post again before we do the video so you know it's coming.

That's strange. There shouldn't be an issue there, as the audio was royalty-free, yet the claim claims otherwise, I guess? Is there a way to mute the audio in a specific few seconds of your video without having to reupload it? You could try to fight the claim and if no action is taken on their part, I believe the claim gets taken away (I'm not certain of this, so please make sure this is accurate, as I don't want you to run into any issues). This should not be ocurring. Please, if there is anything I can do to help, let me know and I'll do all I can to help this get resolved for you. You worked hard on your video and deserve to earn from it fully.
