To upload a video, you need to link your YouTube account in the videos section on your profile and tick the boxes of the videos you want uploaded to your Steam profile.

I am having the same problem. I linked my YouTube and ticked the boxes but when i click the upload button it just refreshes the page.

Yes, I and one of my Steam friends have he same problem - and we have uploaded many videos successfully before (we know how to do it).

This thing has happened before, during the Monster sale some months ago. I believe it has something to do with the Steam servers not functioning correctly. When this last happened, a clever guy came up with the sollution to spam the green "Add" button and it actually worked that time, although you ended up with multiple copies of the video being added to your profile, but it wasn't a problem, because at least you could just select those extra copies and then delete them again. This time around however, this method doesn't seem to work. The best we can do, is to wait for the problem to be sorted out by Steam. Last time it did get sorted out after a week or so.

Hi guys!

Has anybody had any success yet? I want to ask you if the games you are trying to upload and link to Steam are Uplay games (Ubisoft)? Because I've linked videos from my other games successfully the last few days, but my Uplay videos (Far Cry 4) still don't want to link up to my Steam account.

Added later: My Far Cry 4 videos just linked successfully to Steam. I don't know what the problem was, but it seems to be working now.

Like the guy said, link the YT user. Steam told me YT vids must be set to "public", otherwise it didnt want to let me upload anything..

For me, I resolved by signing on through the website for steam - www.steam.steampowered.com. It wouldn't allow me to upload from the Steam Application - different from the steam website.

Yeah I thought it had to do something with google updating there login page but it's just probably an issue on Steam's end right now. Hope they fix it soon.
