It works, Thank you so much

No worries, I just changed the variable 10 by 5 !

Sir, I used your code, but I can’t bypass the TV series copyright (banned)

Does your method really work?

With these ffmpeg commands you will not bypass any site's copyright.

It does not changes video content.

Do u ask that to @FiveForwardSlash or to me ?

So what does the op master write in the title to make the video "unique"?

Didn’t he mean that youtube can’t detect duplicate videos?

If you can answer this question, then I am asking you.

Changing bitrate, resize, brightness and so on does not make the video unique.

To do that you need apply some hard video effects, but i doubt it is possible to leave video viewable after real making it unique.

I don't quite understand what naynu wants to do, what is the type of content?

a tv series, most of them weekly show. you get the ideas, like korean drama, telenovela or something with duration 30mins - 1 hours vids / uploads depend on the original episodes. he want to upload something like that, get hundred thousand of views etc. stuff like that will attract mostly young girl / mom to watch it. you get the idea.

I know someone who keep doing this kind of shyt and get banned, flagged, shadowban... and still doing it, sighs... aight, Imma head out.

edit: not to mentions combining it with original intros/outros/own videos and "trim it before 100k within 24-48 hours marks thingy". yeah, I spell it out, zehahaha. everyone know this right ? or...nevermind XD

not that hard effect, just a little moving frame will do that, keep it within max seconds of content allowed on fairuse (you know this). just a little time on mobile phone editing can do that, just don't change the story too much. well, don't know with manual review, but its work. not gonna spell out the detail, but you get the bigger map ideas.

- so this is what they say to zoom out, view the bigger map, ah... what a world to live...

I am not a specialist but tried cutting the video, distort sound, placing filters, flipping the image horizontally, removing meta tags etc ...
By the way, I do not recommend making video edits using a cell phone !

well, some people doesn't have a bigger tool to use. so, make use of something you have and maxed it to the fullest ( I don't know if this the right words). but, thats what I'm testing. we know we can do much more stuff with PC, but I've seen somebody can make bunch of money just by his phone and a cheap mic, and thats not even high end phone, really ?!

out of curiosity, I gave some ffmpeg code in this thread to somebody that "always get banned up there" and he tried to use it with a tool called MyRenderTool. I don't know what happen with him at this point, maybe use the code or maybe stay the old way...

anyway, did you make some bat thingy since you understand well with ffmpeg ? that would be useful tho (yea, I know some people prefer the old way typing in command line). Didn't tried it with termux tho, since I uninstalled that thing long time ago xd

why i use above script not only zoom but also audio and image delay (out of sync)
do you have a script that just zooms in and out every second?

This post was prepared as an answer to a question in this thread.
https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/how-to-make-reposted-videos-unique.1337722/#post-14457374/
But I decided to create a new one for the opportunity to supplement or make a series of posts on this topic of my experience with YouTube.
Everything written is my subjective experience and if you do not agree, please speak in the comments.

The topic with video uniqueness is very large and there won't be a simple answer here. But I will try to explain how it works and what settings you should try.

Globally, video verification in social networks and video hosting can be divided into two parts.
- Artificial intelligence, machine learning and live moderators. Typically, these methods are aimed at identifying inappropriate content (porn, blood, etc.) and copyrighted content.
- Methods that usually analyze the technical parameters of the video (including the hash sum).

I have good experience with the second methods, I will talk more about them. The work on changing the video code can also be divided into two important areas.

1. The first is the settings for recording the very information in the video. We are talking about rendering, video bitrate, audio bitrate, fame rate and constant rate factor (-crf).

2. The second direction is the change in the content of the video is imperceptible to the average user. Mirroring, Brightness, Contrast, Intro additions, gluing random parts of the video, etc.

Depending on the complexity of the task (the number of videos you want to download and the original ones), the number of settings will increase. Here are the tips arranged in order of increasing complexity of the task and the service you want to cheat.

1. Everywhere start by re-rendering your file. The fact is that this action requires little time and resources of the computer, but at the same time it allows you to get a rather unique hash sum without changing the content of the video, since the pixels will be overwritten in an arbitrary order.

2. Set a random Bitrate value. The most powerful tool in unique video is the bitrate, so it determines how much information will be recorded per second of the video and the weight of the final file. In my experience, it was this parameter that allowed us to achieve significant results. The more you want to get copies, the more you need to set the Bitrate range (for example, from 2M to 8M) with a step of 1M for each new video. 2M, 3M, 4M, 5M, 6M, 7M, 8M ...
For those who did not know, this parameter also accepts fractional numbers. For example, you can set the Video Bitrate "-b: v 6.5M".

3. Adding Brightness and Contrast. In this step, we are strengthening the 1st and 2nd method as we start to modify the content of the video but without much effort and harm to the video itself. The Brightness parameter (-vf eq = brightness =) takes a value from -1 to 1. I recommend the range from -0.2 to 0.2, since with large deviations from 0, the effects noticeably spoil the picture. In my templates, I set the generation of a random value to the recommended range with a step of 0.02. For example -0.2, -0.18, -0.16, -0.14 ...

The Contrast parameter (-vf eq = contrast =) takes values from -1000 to 1000. I recommend a range from -1 to 1. And a step of 0.2. -1, -0.8, -0.6, -0.4 ...

In my experience with YouTube, steps of 0.02 and 0.2 are sufficient to not be visible to the human eye, but significantly increase the uniqueness of the video in the eyes of the machine.

4. Change video length and add Intro. Using YouTube as an example, it turned out to significantly increase the number of copies from one file if we add a randomly prepared Intro from 4 seconds to 7 at the beginning of the video. For the intro, it is enough to make a picture, logo or an introductory animation (I did it in after effects). Make 3-5 of these and randomly glue to your main video. As a bonus, this will change the length of the video from the original.

This is enough to solve 90% of the problem and the final line would look like this.

ffmpeg -i "C:\Users\User\Desktop\Intro.mp4" -acodec copy -vcodec copy -vbsf h264_mp4toannexb -f mpegts "C:\Users\User\Desktop\Intro.ts"
ffmpeg -i "C:\Users\User\Desktop\Video.mp4" -acodec copy -vcodec copy -vbsf h264_mp4toannexb -f mpegts "C:\Users\User\Desktop\Video.ts"
ffmpeg -i "concat:C:\Users\User\Desktop\Intro.ts|C:\Users\User\Desktop\Video.ts" -s 1280x720 -b:v 6.5M -vf eq = brightness = 0.02 -vf eq = contrast = 0.8 "C:\Users\User\Desktop\VideoNew.mp4"

5. If this is not enough for your tasks then the next step is to generate a random Frame rate (-r) and Constant Rate Factor (-crf).

The value of the Frame rate should be set depending on the dynamics of your video, the power of your computer and the desired video weight. I do not recommend setting less than 30, as even with a slow slide show it looks noticeably bad. The higher the value, the more frames you need to render, which affects the render speed and the weight of the final file.

The -crf parameter takes values from 0 to 51 and it is he who is responsible for the video quality. But we are interested in the range from 18 to 28. 18 is better quality but more weight and 28 is worse quality but less file weight and the default value is 23.

ffmpeg -i "C:\Users\User\Desktop\Intro.mp4" -acodec copy -vcodec copy -vbsf h264_mp4toannexb -f mpegts "C:\Users\User\Desktop\Intro.ts"
ffmpeg -i "C:\Users\User\Desktop\Video.mp4" -acodec copy -vcodec copy -vbsf h264_mp4toannexb -f mpegts "C:\Users\User\Desktop\Video.ts"
ffmpeg -i "concat:C:\Users\User\Desktop\Intro.ts|C:\Users\User\Desktop\Video.ts" -s 1280x720 -r 30 -crf 28 -b:v 6.5M -vf eq=brightness=0.02 -vf eq=contrast=0.8 "C:\Users\User\Desktop\VideoNew.mp4"

can i request some code???

Hey, thanks for sharing I think I saw this thread before but found it again today. I’ve recently been tasked with spinning and uploading a clients video (check my last thread) and have been using the Mass Spinner tool which isn’t working very well.

After spinning it I’m then placing it into Camtasia and adding all of the obvious edits such as spotlights, speeding up, some effects, background sound, intro and an outro but the video gets ghosted each time. Will this method shared on your thread give better results?

The video will have a unique hash tag, but will still get detected by youtube if copyright
