It seems youre having trouble with an unsupported video format on YouTube TV. MacBooks typically support a wide range of formats like MP4 and MOV due to QuickTime Player integration. However, some less common or high-end codecs might not work out of the box. To resolve this issue: 1) Try converting your videos using an online tool such as OnlineVideoConverter ([onlinevideoconverter.com](http://www.onlinevideoconverter.com)) to a compatible format like MP4 before uploading them on YouTube TV. 2) If you prefer desktop software, consider installing HandBrake - its free and open-source with support for various video formats ([handbrake.fr/downloads](http://www.handbrake.fr/downloads)). Make sure the output format is compatible with YouTube TV standards before converting your videos. 3) Check if there are any specific requirements or limitations on uploading files to YouTubeTV from MacBook, and adjust accordingly for a smooth experience!
