Hello guys! I was making gameplay video yesterday and there was only ingame sounds. No ingame music or other stuff. But today I got a claim for a part of video, there just was sound of wind blows. No other sounds, just the wind. And it was a ingame content. Should I send an appellate for this or just... may be game creators don't have the rights for this sounds of windblowing? It was the test video anyway, but I just wondering what to do in such type of cases in the future.

great tnx to anyone who answer!!!

It seems very strange they would only try and claim it for such a small part of the video and only for wind blowing. Did you have any commentary on the video or anything like that?

Thats really strange the first time I've heard of something this petty - what I mean there is that they are trying to claim the video just for wind blowing. Have the given you the option to remove that part of the audio from the video? Or if you have audio commentary on the video as well you could always try and get it excluded due to fair use but that's up to you, and it might not work as fair use isn't 100% guaranteed

Dispute it, it's a false claim. Simply state your video is fair use.

The content ID system is just flagging it up automatically due to similar sounds.
