Uploading YouTube Videos from Live Stream.

The issue is with Youtube but we found a fix. If you choose to upload a video from YouTube that has "live" in the URL you just delete everything back to the "/" before "live" and replace with watch?v=xxxxxxxxx (xxxxxxxx=video key) for example here is the wrong URL:

https://www.youtube.com/live/oDeMTKwtiMo?si=0TPL2RpXa7FRiKvL

Now the right way...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDeMTKwtiMo

The Video KEY is always right after the "/live".

Josh A. You are most welcome. Our "IT" team stated to me that they may have an automatic fix soon making this unnecessary but until then this is a workaround.

That will help alot for being able to use the videos for studying and learning.
