I don't know the technical details but it seems videos have a digital fingerprint. Some TV channels are militant in having their shows protected. When YouTube detect that a posted video matches the fingerprint of a copyrighted programme they will remove it. That's why some people post videos with a reversed picture, so it can trick the detection system.

You're a joke.

YouTube's Content ID creates a fingerprint of uploaded reference material, then compares it not only to newly uploaded videos, but to every video ever uploaded to the video sharing powerhouse. And it does it in minutes.

The system is flexible enough to identify videos only partly comprised of copyrighted material, or where the dimensions or colors are altered. Content owners can create rules to block all pirated material, allow it and track its use, or allow it and monetize its views. Heckmann initially didn't see the value of the allow and track option, but said many content owners were thrilled to get free data on where in the world their content was popular.

Content owners need to upload low-resolution reference files for YouTube to check against. Once YouTube has created a reference file, it compares that to its library of millions of videos, and does it in minutes so that permitted videos can quickly go live. Over 1,000 partners worldwide, including CNN, use the system.

I genuinely think Watch_Dogs is an Assassin's Creed game.

Freeda you got me thinking so I did a quick search. It's called YouTube Content ID

A possible hack? Speed up or slow down audio by 6% or more.

It's porn... that would not be hard to upload. But no, I'm talking youtube here. I want to upload some SNL, that is all.

Why not let someone else do it?

Well then, you'd better purchase or licence the rights, I guess.

I have a video I made on Youtube with a Strokes song playing in the background and it got banned in Germany

Hope this helps, Freeda.
