I'm creating my first YouTube video and am a bit disappointed with the licensing options. Ideally, I would want to use a CC BY-NC license because I don't really want others profiting off of my work, but that is not an option in the interface. If I select the standard license, but put something like "Licensed under CC BY-NC, despite what the interface says" in the video, is that able to override the standard license? If not, is there any other way to license my video how I want to?

Edit: Just for the sake of clarity, I mean selecting the Youtube Standard License for my video, NOT the default provided CC license.

Is one able to "override" the terms of the Youtube Standard Licence with a slightly stricter Creative Commons than is allowed by the interface?
