I absolutely love Youtube shorts...

and the constant jumping around of the videos. If I click on a channel that has a few shorts, click on one in the middle it will play the audio for 2s, jump to some other short I havent clicked and then show a frozen image. Happens on every laptop, PC and phone I ever used, so this must happen to others too, right?

How can I avoid YouTube claims with this video idea?

I have a channel dedicated to just the Los Angeles Lakers, and one of the thing I want to start uploading to my channel is "listicle" type videos where I do top ten lists and things of that nature.

The first video I want to do is a video of all Kobe Bryant buzzer-beating game-winning shots. For example this one that was posted by the NBA 15 years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zhtz4MAWs5o

What I want to do is take the clips from each of the shots and merge them together for a single video. But my question is, what can I do to the original clips to make them pass the content claims and demonetization issues? I obviously want to monetize the content and want to do it ethically.

I thought there might be an AI program or something that can do SOME kind of animation or something to enhance the video a little bit to make the clips more unique and original that help me avoid any strikes. So I have a 2-part question:

  1. Do you have any ideas on how I can edit the clips together to avoid YouTube demonetizing the video? It can be creative, such as making Kobe look like a superhero, adding design effects, animating the entire video to replicate the real one, etc.

  2. Is there a program out there, preferably AI, that can help me easily achieve that?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Live chat replay on TV app

Is there a way to view the live chat replay on the TV app? I see the chat on the screen when live and can access comments on the replay, but am hoping to be able to see the live chat on screen when watching the replay.

Does this platform even pretend to care about medical misinformation ads?

If you're going to be the world's foremost ad-driven video platform, one would think you'd actually care about the content of ads being shown.

I have gotten completely bombarded by ads ranging from obvious AI generated nonsense all the way to up to complete charlatans all pushing nonsense misinformation that could actively harm people if they followed it.

The AI generated garbage I've seen lately includes ads saying that avoiding ice water can prevent dementia, sucking on apple cider vinegar ice cubes can eliminate belly fat, and other predatory ads featuring very convincing looking AI generated people, at least for tech savvy people that can recognize this kind of thing.

Charlatans that I keep getting pushed on me include things like Dr. Gundry and V-Shred, who continually try to push pseudoscience and misinformation to try to get people into sales funnels.

All these ads are irresponsible, dangerous, and have no place on a platform with a global audience like this. I really wish they'd do something about this. Do they even care? Has YouTube ever been confronted about this kind of garbage?

Why is the max resolution 720p on TV

I got a new 4k Tv recently and every time I watch YouTube on it, the highest possible resolution is 720p for 99% of videos (I found 1 in 1080p) even though they are in a higher resolution on other devices (pc, phone etc.). Everything I found about it was talking about sports shows and movies, not about normal videos. Can I fix that and if so how?

YouTube’s advertising model for TVs sucks

When one uses the YouTube app on TVs, there seems to be sooo many commercials, like honestly as much as cable or maybe more. I know I’m not as smart as all the people who make these decisions, but I think YouTube made a mistake trying to frame itself as another streaming/music service with a paid tier. There’s nothing wrong with that service tier in of itself, but when they force it over their original ‘feel’ as a user-driven, free-upload, free-watch, video board is where I think they lose out on the ultimate experience. Obviously, they want to make money so ads are a given. But please couldn’t it be possible to advertise in a way that doesn’t interrupt the videos quite so much? I don’t think most viewers, myself included, are particularly ired by the natural trade of watching adds in exchange for (free) entertainment, but it’s so crazy on YouTube for tv particularly now. 45 second unskippable commercials every 5-10 minutes or so. I would literally rather have a constant margin around my video with an Adsense box all the time than have it be interrupted so often. Like I said, I know smarter people than me figure this stuff out—or really, I’m ultimately just confronting a vast corporation with a monopolistic share of a means of digital infrastructure—but I can’t be the only one who feels this way, right?

Help With Analytics

Any way to get a 100% accurate number on views and watch time, all that stuff? I have been posting gaming shorts recently and my phone app vs youtube website always show different stats, with the website usually lagging behind. One short has 10k+ views but my youtube website shows it under 5k still.

Why are Youtube Recommendations so Annoying?

Like say I watch one or two videos about cruise ships. When I click off the video then half of my recommendation is cruise ship videos. It won't stop recommending me those types of videos till I remove it from my watch history. That's not all what I want to watch youtube i'm not that obsessed. Why is it like this?
