As part of the move, the existing ITN Archive channel will be rebranded as Frontline by ITN, sitting alongside two newly created channels: Flashback by ITN and Re‑Told by ITN.

Frontline by ITN will focus on conflict and global affairs, offering curated, contextualised archive footage from some of the most significant moments in modern history. It will also be the first channel produced by ITN to introduce YouTube Memberships, “giving users the opportunity to directly support the digitisation and preservation of ITN’s archive, while helping to shape future releases of content.”

Flashback by ITN will celebrate defining moments from popular culture, while Re‑Told by ITN will present a snapshot in time of our collective social history. Using these new genre ‘buckets’, the digital team will “experiment with formats that utilise the best of the archive for a digital-first audience.”

Alongside the archive channels, the team has also refreshed the existing YouTube channels – The Royal Family Channel, Onlooker (formerly ODN) and Pop Drop (formerly ODE).

The two will launch YouTube channels for Arthur, the long-running animated series produced by GBH, and Jacques Pépin, whose programme Jacques Pépin Cooking at Home was produced by KQED.

The Arthur YouTube channel will be available worldwide excluding the US, while the Jacques Pépin channel will be available around the globe.

The two are also launching YouTube channels for Peep & the Big Wide World, produced by GBH (worldwide excluding Canada) and Piripenguins, produced by Eaglet Films and Red Monk Studio for BBC and Rai, which will be available in North America.

Billy Bones Club ad breaches Ad Standards rules by promoting smoking

Ad Standards has upheld a complaint against fashion retailer Billy Bones Club over a YouTube ad depicting people smoking and drinking.

Although Ad Standards only received the complaint in recent months, Billy Bones Club first posted the ad to Youtube seven years ago.

The report added: “The Panel considered that the community at large has moved away from the notion that smoking is considered appealing or essential to one’s image.”

A few days ago, I received a copyright strike for a Channel Ten video I uploaded over five years ago. However, when I looked into it more, I noticed that the copyright strike wasn’t from Channel Ten; it was sent by a video restoration company called Australian Television Archive.

So basically, it was a fraudulent copyright strike sent by someone who doesn’t even own the rights to the content in the video. :enraged_face: I’ve never been in a situation like this in the 13 years that I have had my channel.

He also sent a fraudulent copyright strike to @Zampakid on the same day and for a video similar to the one that I had taken down. I know there’s a lot of us here who uploads TV content onto YouTube, so I just wanted to warn everyone in case he starts to send out copyright strikes to other channels.

That’s how smart the AI police are, and they can’t stop the buying, selling and content theft of channels :person_shrugging:

I’m pretty sure the guy who runs this company is on this forum? Surely (hopefully) a mistake?

Edit: @austvarchive but he hasn’t been on since November.

Probably trying to make everyone go through them and pay if they want archive tv footage

Odysee is a better place for video archiving

I don’t really want it to become a ‘tit for tat’ type of situation, tbh.

As much as I am annoyed over what has happened, I also don’t want to stoop down to that level by sending fraudulent copyright strikes, especially seeing as though I legally don’t own the rights to the content I upload anyway.

Eh I tried Odysee.. it was weird to figure out

Gave up & returned to YouTube.

Eh.. The only copyright issues I’ve had were all related to intro music

Like.. it’s annoying when the artist says ‘Copyright Free Music’ and you end up gettinga strike anyway.

Had to trim parts out of a Channel 9 continuity yesterday

They said the issue was ‘NRL Content’
 but the part which was striked was a Medicare ad.

I’ve been a YouTuber since 2017 and it’s been a lot of fun.

The current format for the YouTube Channels started in 2018.

I can’t comment specifically on this one but it reminds me of that time a few years back when I uploaded to YouTube a compilation of radio news intros sourced from many sources, and credited accordingly. There are plenty of similar videos on YouTube that source and credit and that is the correct way to do it. But for the former Radio Vault YouTube channel, that wasn’t good enough and they claimed I had stolen their content. All the Radio Vault did was digitise and upload the content. That was it. They don’t own the copyright or intellectual property, the respective broadcasters did. Merely digitising and uploading does not give an individual the right to claim that it’s theirs and that’s the view I have taken all along. I’ve digitised and uploaded videos of TV broadcasts before and those have been re-uploaded to YouTube and elsewhere and I didn’t care, because it wasn’t my content.

On a side note, the Radio Vault later set up a paid model for access which lasted less than a day because you can’t charge people for content that is not yours.
