Problem. Shorts are remixable by default; creators need to know the control and the feedback loop. Conditions. Own videos in YouTube Studio; Content Manager partners have extra controls. Method. Studio, Content, open the video, Show more, Shorts remixing, choose allow or not, Save; the setting can also be edited in bulk and at upload. Creators can opt out of video remixing; Content Manager partners can opt out of audio and video, and restricting all of a partner's videos needs the partner manager. Remix notifications are one summary a day, at most three times a week. Views from visual remixes appear in reach reports under the Remixed video traffic source. Failure modes. Opting out later mutes, unlists and schedules deletion of audio remixes (see C3-B673-14). Limitations. Page gives no remix counts or benchmarks. Version and date. Undated.
