YouTube automatically enabled TrueView in-stream ads

Posting Mad!
Hey, so this morning I received a comment on one of my videos and click on it to replay, than I see that my video has a TrueView in-stream ad and I didn't enable them from any of my videos, so I check them up in video manager and like 70% of them, have it enabled. Wt*?! YouTube automatically enables them?
 
You can go into your settings and go to defaults and pick what averts. Chances are you didn't set them beforehand, and so they're all just defaulting.

I clicked on settings but after that I only have "overview, connected accounts, privacy, email and playback" where is defaults?
 
Do you have a third party match on it? In which case the rightful copyright owner has control over advertisements on the video.

You have to go to Video Manager > Channel Settings tab > Defaults ;)
There you can select your Ad formats and a bunch of other useful settings.

Thanks, they were all selected. But on "license" what do I need to select? "standard or creative commons?

If you wish to retain the copyright to the content then choose standard. If you wish to make the content free to use under the terms of the creative commons license then choose that. If you still don't know then read the terms of the CC license and decide whether it's right for you.

Thanks, I understand it now, I'm gonna keep it on standard. :up:
 
Some networks also force change the ads if they don't like what you selected. BroadbandTV (NG, TGN, etc) does this.
