Share your video on your YouTube channel
You can sign in to YouTube from Premiere Rush and directly share your video on your YouTube channel.
Sign in to YouTube
- Click Share in the toolbar and then choose YouTube.
- Sign in to YouTube (if you are not already signed in).
- Under Settings, set the following options:
- Title: Add a title to your video.
- Description: Help viewers understand more about the video by adding a description. This description displays at the bottom of the video after it is published live on YouTube.
- Tags: Add tags to your video. Tags allow other YouTube users to see your video by linking common words associated with your video. Other videos with similar tags are often grouped in the sidebar on YouTube.
- Privacy when shared: Select one of the options available: Public, Unlisted, or Private. Public videos can be searched for and viewed by anyone. Unlisted videos are only accessible to people who know the video link. Private videos are unlisted and only viewers whom you designate can view them. These users must have a Google account to access the video.
- Category: Select a video category from the drop-down list.
- Playlist: Choose a playlist from the drop-down list.
- Schedule: Select this check box if you want to schedule when your video gets published to your YouTube channel. Then select the publish time from the date and time picker.
- Keep a copy of this file: Select this option if you want to keep a copy of the video saved on your computer. After selecting this option, navigate to the folder where you want to save the file. You can then choose to set the following advanced settings or retain the default settings, which are generally the best settings.
Preset: The default preset on all platforms is Automatic where Resolution and Frame Rate are set to Automatic, Audio Channels is set to Stereo, and Quality is set to High. However, you can select any preset from the drop-down list based on the nature of your video and your publish destination.
The following elements define a preset. When you change any of these elements, the preset automatically becomes a custom preset. After you create a custom preset, you can save the preset.

Audio Channels |
You can choose between mono, stereo, or no audio options. |

You can also upload your own custom thumbnail. Click Upload and browse to select a preferred image that you want to use as your video thumbnail.
