Community members can even interact, comment and post replies for the interest video.
But because YouTube has a limited range of video formats (mov, mpeg4, avi, mp4, wmv, flv, 3gp, webm) it supports for uploading by default, you might not be able to upload some of non-common used file onto YouTube, one of these is MTS. If you ever tried to upload a MTS video onto YouTube, you know that YouTube just won't accept it. You would need to convert your MTS file into a YouTube friendly format firstly before posting it onto your YouTube channel.
