so it looks like ive been hit by a copyright claim on my Permadeath stream yesterday

Hi The Sanguine Raven,

A copyright owner using Content ID has claimed some material in your video.

As a result, your video has been blocked, and can no longer be played on YouTube.

This is not a copyright strike. This claim does not affect your account status.

I thought were allowed to use the in game music as the Devs and the creator of the music have given permission is there anything i can do to get my video back up.

Here is a link to the video if that helps

There we go … 2 new claims today …

Hard to see which video it is now since it’s from a stream and most of the vids have the same name. What’s annoying too is that the whole video seems to be getting blocked everywhere. An no … the weren’t even set for monetization. These now all have a copyright claim

So 7 vids for a total of 13 copyright claims.

Thank you for trying to help, but I do not consent to being part of any story. The proper procedures are being taken and I assume it may take some time. Youtube usually takes several weeks/months to handle most issues. It might be stalled in the hands of UMG, dunno.

Bad idea. Very bad idea. If many years of office politics has taught me anything calling out either intentionally being difficult or causing a problem by failing will just result in the person/company getting defensive and pee’d off slowing the whole thing down…not to mention potentially throwing a spanner in the works for the person you think your helping.

Best just leave this well alone and with the devs

Well … another day … another 2 copyright claimns have been received. Since I seem to be getting them on all the VODS for my streams and they all have the same name, it’s almost impossible to tell which one got the 2 claims this time … Wish there was an easy way to see that.

So … my guess is … on Friday I’ll get 2 or 3 more.

I was able to get my video back up by having YouTube remove the song from video, from now on my Boundless streams will be with the music off unfortunately.

This video was from last year my new videos of Boundless are without music now but it a shame my older videos are now being blocked.

More of mine are getting blocked. I’m just going to cut out the music.

I’m wondering why this is happening now all of a sudden…

I suspect it’s related to this

I know better, but it’s almost like YT is directly working to prevent the only advertisements Boundless has.

Perhaps Wonderstruck should send YT a cease and desist letter?

Looks as though the claims have been removed. My last stream was unblocked.
