All the YouTube selections appear automatically based on the title of the track/album/artist being viewed. Sometimes there might not be a good match on YouTube, but at the moment there is no mechanism to override this. The videos on YouTube are constantly changing, so even if there was a mechanism to override this on specific pages, it would become out of date as and when new videos are removed/added to YouTube.

At the other extreme, if all videos were hand-picked (a very big job), there are different licensing laws in each country, so a video might be valid in USA, but not everywhere else. Also, because of the ever-changing nature of YouTube, static links to specific videos may become out of date or superseded by better versions (HD etc). All in all, not very helpful! I'm not sure what the answer is.

Is there any way to modify/edit which YouTube selections are made. Sometimes they are redundant or totally irrelevant.

Sorry if there is already a post to that effect.
