(Solved) Video Monetization

Why are my videos being monetized with non-skippable ads and long ads?

Ive gone through all my videos and turned them off to find there all back on again

I dont want these type of ads on my channel as i don't expect my viewers to be forced to sit through non-skippable or long adverts.

This has only occurred since switching from Freedom to MGN

 

It should have only happened once, when you swap MCNS (Freedom to MGN) you lose monetization on all your videos. So Freedom auto turns it back on for all your videos to ensure you keep making $. If you turn it off now it shouldn't happen again, if it does contact support because as far as I know that isn't intended! It should only happen when the monetization is affected on your account.

What most likely happened was you were moved from Freedom to Freedom 2 or 3 (Their new CMS accounts because the first it getting full!) so you had the auto monetization, then when you moved to MGN the same thing happened again, so from now on it "shouldn't" happen again!

 

@Alex ever since I've moved over to MGN from Freedom, I've had to monetize my videos everytime I put them up. I've even set up monetization in my defaults and I still have to do it every time I upload.

 

Im pretty sure MCN's aren't allowed to do that.. Not to sure........

Check you're monetization settings in upload defaults and set them

Yep, here is what I have:

The same settings I had before.

 

This sounds like an issue with your YouTube account as we can't control your detailed monetization settings from the CMS. All we can do is allow your channel to monetize or not and we have it set to monetize all channels in the MGN CMS.
