Supported Platforms for Music Videos
InterSpace distributes music videos to:
- YouTube / VEVO — your video is delivered to your VEVO channel (or a general YouTube channel if you do not qualify for VEVO)
- Apple Music — music videos appear on your Apple Music artist page
- Tidal — for subscribers with video access
- Amazon Music — for Prime Video Music subscribers
Video File Requirements
- Format: MOV or MP4 (H.264 codec recommended)
- Minimum resolution: 1920 × 1080 px (Full HD) — 4K (3840 × 2160) is recommended for future-proofing
- Aspect ratio: 16:9 (widescreen) — this is required by all platforms
- Frame rate: 24, 25, or 30 fps
- Audio in video: Stereo, 48 kHz, 16-bit minimum
- Maximum file size: 2 GB
- Minimum duration: 60 seconds
What Makes a Video Eligible for VEVO?
VEVO has additional requirements:
- The audio release (single/album) must already be distributed through InterSpace
- The video must be a professionally produced official music video (not a lyric video or visualiser)
- The artist must have a minimum streaming history (VEVO reviews this at its discretion)
- Lyric videos and visualisers can still be distributed to YouTube directly, but may not qualify for VEVO
How to Submit Your Music Video
- Log in to your InterSpace dashboard and navigate to Releases.
- Click Upload New Release and select Music Video as the release type.
- Link the video to its corresponding audio release (so ISRC codes are matched).
- Upload your video file and complete all metadata fields.
- Select your target video platforms.
- Submit — video quality control takes 5–7 business days.
Common Rejection Reasons for Videos
- Incorrect aspect ratio (not 16:9)
- Visible platform watermarks from other services
- Third-party copyright content used without clearance (clips, samples)
- Poor audio sync with the visual
- Explicit visual content not flagged correctly
