⚠️ Important: This article explains how to customize the appearance of the YouTube video automatically generated by Ausha when you want to share an audio episode to your channel.
If you uploaded a video file for your episode and want to share it to your YouTube channel from Ausha, its appearance cannot be modified or customized directly through Ausha.
📚 Check out our articles How do I distribute my podcast on YouTube from Ausha? and What will my episode videos look like on YouTube? to learn more.
The video generated by Ausha for YouTube includes the following elements:
Top left 👉 The episode artwork (or, if you did not upload artwork for the episode, the artwork for your show).
Top right 👉 Your show name and the episode title.
Bottom 👉 The audio waveform that moves in sync with your episode's audio.
You can customize the color of the audio waveform that will be generated for the YouTube videos of your future episodes.
🎨 To do this:
Go to the Settings tab.
Click the Distribution section.
In the YouTube section, click the gear icon in the top right corner to open the page.
Here you'll find all the settings related to distributing your episodes to YouTube. Go to Style > Accent color to change the default color of the audio waveform for your future episodes.
💡 This customization will apply to future episodes published to YouTube only.
It cannot be applied to episodes that have already been shared to your YouTube channel.
It is not possible to modify the text (show title or episode title), the artwork, or any other elements of the video. ❌
Can I modify the appearance of my episode video after it has been published on YouTube?
When you enable distribution to YouTube for an episode, Ausha publishes a video file to your YouTube channel.

If you edit your episode after it has been published for the first time (its title, description, or cover art), those changes will automatically be reflected on podcast listening platforms (Apple Podcasts, Deezer, Spotify, Podcast Addict, etc.), but they will not be reflected on YouTube.
Once your episode video has been published to your YouTube channel, it can no longer be modified. ❌
Unlike podcast listening platforms, YouTube does not distribute podcasts through your show's RSS feed and therefore cannot detect any changes made to your episode after its initial public publication.

💡 Tip: If you want to modify your episode video, you will need to go directly to your YouTube channel, manually delete the original generated video, and then re-share your episode from Ausha to YouTube after making the necessary changes.
