Well, as far as I know, there’s not going to be native support for XAVC codec on YouTube. XAVC can support 4K resolution (4096 X 2160 and 3840 X 2160) at up to 60 frames per second (fps) and uses MXF as the container format. Generally speaking, YouTube accepts video files in FLV, AVI, etc formats. So, in order to upload XAVC to YouTube, the first thing you need do is to convert XAVC to YouTube supported video formats.
