YouTube Links on enCAST

For technical reasons, we only accept public YouTube links that look like this:

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

Notice that the URL ends in this format: 

watch?v=xxxxxx

These are:

  • Not password-protected
  • Not private or hidden
  • Viewable by anyone
  • Set to allow embedding

This type of video will play directly on your profile on our website.

Unfortunately, we cannot accept links like these:

https://youtube.com/shorts/xxxxxx

These are shorts and will not embed on our site.

Casting Directors expect a "standard" looking YouTube video, one that is in landscape format.

We also cannot accept videos that:

  • Are password-protected
  • Are marked as “unlisted” or “only people with the private link”
  • Are set to not allow embedding

Note, that we cannot accept these links because of restrictions on YouTube which don't allow them to show on other websites.
