In video SEO, i want to show only one category that randomly chosen.

In one video, there are three or four categories, so i want to select only one automatically.

Is this video page description? E.g. <meta name="description"> in site header. Or where it is displayed.

yes video page description

It could be possible to show random category there, but not recommended, because it will be random every time and Google doesn't like that.

You can show the first one in Website UI -> Pages -> View video page template. Find this line:

{{assign var="page_description" value=$lang.html.video_details_description|replace_tokens:$storage.video_view_video_view}}

Replace with this:

{{assign var="page_description" value=$lang.html.video_details_description|replace_tokens:$storage.video_view_video_view|replace:"%first_category%":$storage.video_view_video_view.categories[0].title}}

Then you can use %first_category% instead of %categories_as_string%
