Questions about uploading playthroughs to YouTube.

I have a survival run I kind of want to upload on YouTube, but I'm worried about copyright issues. I uploaded myself playing all the songs from DDR1 in the past, and I "nightcored" some of the songs I thought would cause issues, but that didn't seem to help.

I believe you can initially upload your video to YouTube as unlisted (or schedule publishing at least a day or two after upload). After a couple of hours, you can see if the bots applied any Content ID claims. Hopefully any Content ID claims are set to either monetize or simply track statistics so your video can stay up, but if the claim chooses to block, you might have to remove that song from your run.

I've rarely had part of a video muted or had it removed/blocked, I just get demonetized. SuperNOVA 2 seems to be dangerous for some reason though, maybe avoid those songs.

i noticed mainstream songs get muted when i do play throughs
