When exporting a vertical video from Adobe Premiere Pro on iPad using Direct Upload to YouTube Shorts, the Short uploads correctly. However, Premiere also creates two additional long-form videos on the same YouTube channel. These extra videos are blank, stuck processing/loading, and must be manually deleted every time.

 

Expected result: only one YouTube Short is uploaded.

 

Actual result: one Short uploads correctly, plus two incomplete long-form videos appear.

 

This happens every time. Deleting the extra videos does not affect the Short, but requires manual cleanup after each upload.

 

Device: iPad

 

Platform: iPadOS

 

App: Adobe Premiere Pro (iPad)
