Guidelines and standards for YouTube
In order to achieve an acceptable level of quality and consitence trought the videos upload on the channel, each uploaded videos must meet theses requirements :


 * Comply with YouTube Copyright regulations http://youtube.com/yt/copyright/what-is-copyright.html
 * Fun introduction https://www.youtube.com/copyright_school
 * Basically, do not upload any content or partial content that are from another source, that includes music, TV show captures, clips from movies/TV.
 * If we get Copyright strikes, after 3 we are out and will be ban from YouTube. We are at one strike before the writing of the current requirements and lost some advantages of our partnership with Google. Current resolution of status is due April 2013.
 * Deleting an infringement strike trigger (it's automated) videos won't help removing the strike.
 * Respect basic quality standards for uploaded videos.
 * 720p minimum, upload in HD if available (YouTube will create lesser resolutions versions automatically)
 * Use recommended YouTube mp4/aac/H.264 encoding if possible (no conversion will be done, upload will be faster) https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/1722171?hl=en&ref_topic=2888648
 * Use recommanded 16:9 ratio if possible
 * Slides must be readable in 480p (for mobile usage and default web view).
 * Sound must be clear and with no electronic noise or with minimal white noise.
 * Google Hangout are relaxed from theses quality standards as long as the slides are full screen and we can hear fine the speaker.
 * Editing must be professional level or very minimal with YouTube tools or absent.
 * Upload videos only with consent from the source even if it's OWASP (like a chapter or a conference).
 * For meta data informations:
 * Put the subject and the speaker name in the title
 * Link to the source on owasp.org Wiki and then any links you want
 * Put the abstract if available and speaker BIO in the description
 * Leave the OWASP Media Project signature
 * Use the default tags (currently #owasp and #appsec) and optionally add some if desired
 * If videos are from a logical batch, associate it with a playlist (Example: AppSecEU2013 playlist)
