βοΈ Additional
The Additional tab contains settings that do not directly belong to metadata but change template behavior: extensions, reporting, delays, timers, and service parameters.
Extensionsβ
Multi-Channel Modeβ
Multi-channel mode enables support for accounts that have access to multiple YouTube channels.
When the mode is enabled, the template runs additional logic to select the required channel. If it is disabled, channel switching steps are skipped.
The practical workflow is covered in Multi-Channel Mode.
Video Uniquenessβ
Video uniqueness enables video processing before upload. The template creates a small graphic layer and overlays it on the video to produce a different file.
Method and parameter details: Video Uniqueness.
Video Monetizationβ
Video monetization enables an attempt to activate monetization on the uploaded video.
Conditions:
| Condition | Result |
|---|---|
| The channel is monetized and the setting is enabled | The template attempts to enable monetization for the video. |
| The channel is not monetized | The template writes a warning and disables monetization for the current account. |
This setting does not enable monetization on the channel. It only works when the channel is already allowed to monetize videos.
Disable Reportβ
Disable report disables writing uploaded video data.
If the setting is disabled, the template appends a row to:
YouTube-Uploader\[Config]\storage\uploaded_videos.txt
Row format:
login;video title;video url;date time
This file is useful for tracking uploaded videos and links.
Delaysβ
Delay After Video Uploadβ
Delay after video upload enables a pause after each uploaded video.
The from-to [seconds] field accepts one range:
30-60
Both parts of the range must be integers. If the value uses an invalid format, the template writes an error to the log.
Delay After Project Completionβ
Delay after project completion enables a pause after successful project completion.
The range format is the same:
30-60
This delay is useful when thread or account behavior needs to be spread out over time.
Timersβ
Timers are set in seconds and must be integers.
| Setting | Purpose |
|---|---|
Video upload wait [seconds] | Maximum time to wait for video upload completion. |
Video processing wait [seconds] | Maximum time to wait for video processing after upload. |
If a timer expires, the template writes a warning or error and moves to the next action according to project logic.
Typical values from input settings:
| Timer | Value |
|---|---|
| Upload wait | 3600 |
| Processing wait | 600 |
Parametersβ
The Parameters field is intended for service flags that enable rare modes without separate interface toggles.
The current input_settings.xml includes these examples:
--clone_method=complex
--hwaccelauto=off
--clone_method=complex belongs to video uniqueness and selects the complex processing method. --hwaccelauto=off is used to disable FFmpeg automatic hardware acceleration in problematic environments.
Use only documented parameters. Arbitrary values may have no effect or cause video processing errors.
