Youtube does not recognize Vegas 9 audio codecs
I rendered a video as mpg2 but when I uploaded it to youtube youtube said it did not recognize the audio codecs but would try anyway. On this computer this video encountered an error and I had to copy the file and upload it on another computer which had the above problem. I had originally tried to upload to youtube right from vegas 9 but got the uploading error. I’d like to fix this as someday the audio will be crucial. This one didn’t matter.

You should render YouTube videos with the Sony AVC codec and not MPEG2 (which is for DVD delivery). If you have Vegas Pro 9.0, the Sony AVC render type has YouTube templates already. They all start with the name “Internet”.

Thanks. I am using Vegas 9 platium. I figured out that it must be rendered in something that also includes the audio. There are several of course. When I go to render it I select which way, like AVI includes audio but is a huge file, WMV is good, Sony AVC (mp4)includes audio in it rendering process acccording to the options. But the upload to youtube had no audio so youtube could not decode it of course. I’ve got to figure out the best and make it default.

Well back to the drawing board. I rendered it in sony avc but when done windows did not list the size of the file as other files were listed. You know properties gives the size of the file. Somehow it didn’t seem to be completed I suppose.

Oops, I should have said it didn’t give the duration. The size was about one third the size of the same video in WMV. Great if I can make it work in mp4.

You should have the audio set as follows:
[x] Include Audio
Audio Format: AAC
Sample rate (Hz): 48,000
Bit rate (bps): 128,000
Audio coding mode: StereoWith these settings YouTube should have no problem with your audio (at least it doesn’t for me)

In the platium version when you render there are about 20 ways to render it, some without audio, some audio only, some video and audio. I lastly rendered as sony avc mp4 which I had done before. Win amp would play audio only but inserted some other video in the form of a slide show, Windows media player crashed when it tried. I uploaded it anyway and after the processing by youtube it had the audio. I’d like to check a video with something else than vegas before uploading. But AVC is so much smaller size than some other ways. Anyway, all’s well that ends well. Is this the end?

I check mine with the Quicktime player. In fact, I have the .mp4 extension associated with the Quicktime player on my PC.

Yes quicktime has been good for me previously although at the moment it is messed up and needs reinstalling. But a free program VLC media player is so versatile and works good so I am using it at the moment. Thanks
