Hi Michael.

If the word “Title” is appearing briefly at the start of your YouTube video, it’s likely due to a video editing or captioning issue. Here are some steps you can take to resolve this issue:

1. Check Video Editing Software:

Review your video editing software and timeline to ensure that there is no text or title overlay added at the beginning of your video inadvertently. Check for any text layers or captions that might have been accidentally placed at the start.

2. Review YouTube Video Settings:

Log in to your YouTube account and navigate to the video in question.
Click on “YouTube Studio” to access the video settings.

In the “Video Details” section, review the video description, tags, and any other metadata to make sure that the word “Title” is not included in the description or any other text fields.

3. Caption and Subtitle Settings:

Check the captions or subtitles settings for your video. If you have uploaded captions or subtitles, review them to ensure that “Title” is not part of the caption file.

4. Re-upload the Video:

If you can’t identify the source of the issue, you may consider re-uploading the video to YouTube, making sure that there are no overlays or text added at the beginning during the upload process.

5. Seek Professional Help:

If the issue persists and you can’t identify the source, consider seeking help from a professional video editor or a YouTube expert who can review your video and settings to pinpoint the problem.

It’s important to thoroughly review both your video editing software and your YouTube settings to locate and remove the “Title” text that’s appearing at the start of your video. Once you’ve resolved the issue, you can upload the corrected video to YouTube.
