Copyright question older video

[TooBIG]

I have an older video that did very well and then because I used a clip I a song got nicked for copyright. I then used YouTube's music to put over it however I still can't claim it. If I removed the audio altogether or did a voice over or can I resubmit it to be claimed/monetized? My account is in good standing no issues what so ever. All green.

You can't edit it I don't think. Using Audioswap as you've seen makes your video not able to be monetized.

Yeah the video is useless really. I suppose it could help drive traffic to my other videos if I made it public. 30k views it'll let me make a copy and start from zero but It says can't save original because it has too many views.

Yeah that's the problem Has to be under 10,000 views

If you take it down, remove the music and do a voice over you'll be fine. I decided to do that before applying for partnership and it was a whole heck of a lot of videos, and it was fine.

voice over music is fine.

I tried all of that and it still gave me trouble. I just gave up. It kept on telling me no matter what that I could only make a copy because it had to many views. I wish I would have known what I then what I know now about copyright and all that good stuff. Live and Learn right.
