    Youtube!!! Don't know whether to be angry or flattered

    This was going to start out as a rant, but I have calmed down, but now don't know what to think or feel. So it is now in Geneal Chat.

    I uploaded a video that I had shot and edited to Youtube a couple of months back, and posted a link here on AULRO.

    I noticed on the weekend that someone with the user name disco4X4au has taken my video and re-edited it and submitted 5 short lengths from it.

    I feel that if someone wanted to do that it would be polite to ask if they could. I would 99% of the time say ok. If it was of their vehicle I would say no problem.

    So what do the masses of the forum think?

    Should I complain (not normally in my nature though) ?

    As Youtube is a public forum is this expected. and I should just shut up and be flattered?

    Is it ok but would have been nice if credit is given?


    Below is the complete video I originally uploaded
    YouTube - WA Mud Comp Landys

    [U]Below is one of the re-edited videos from disc4X4au[/U]

    Well I'd be thinking flattered. Would have been nice/polite if he had a quick thanks at the end.

    I think once you publish anything on the web you can kiss goodbye to any ownership.

    Thanks Guys,

    You are all correct. I don't know what I was thinking it must have been the surprise, seeing it on youtube. I just needed to take a step back.

    Anyhow it is all good now


    And if it is you gghaggis . No probs Thank you.

    A similar thing happened to me a few weeks ago were some of my Youtube vid ended up linked on another 4WD forum with no reference to who took the video.

    Impolite not to give a credit but as DeeJay said, once its on Youtube its public property.

    People post links to video on youtube all the time on here as well as other forums, and I don't recall once seeing anyone post a credit to the original editor.
    Doesn't make it right I know, but it happens everywhere.

    Egads, yes, 'twas I

    Humblest apologies for not putting an acknowledgement on it - I'm sure I did with the others, but this must have been the "last thing at night" one!

    I shall rectify asap!

    Cheers,

    Gordon
