Activity Forums Compression Techniques 1080p to YouTube settings

  • 1080p to YouTube settings

    Posted by Brian Kayfitz on March 11, 2007 at 7:27 pm

    Hello,

    I have a couple of 1080p and NTSC ads that I have to put on YouTube. To the best of my knowledge, videos have to be under 100mb before they can be uploaded onto that site. So far, everything that I’ve done to compress the video (all done in Adobe Premiere Pro’s Adobe Media Encoder) has resulted in some really low quality video. Everything looks fine on my computer, but the uploaded version is really poor.

    So, what would you guys suggest for optimal quality on YouTube (and other sites among the same ilk) Should I try to reduce the resolution to 320×240 on my end or let their upload service do the work, etc.

    Many Thanks!

    You certainly want to be doing the resizing yourself.

    It’s a London thing.

    Brian, I picked this up of the “DP Buzz” (Philip Hodgett’s podcast website) for the best YouTube quality.

    Fantastic!

    Thank you so much. I’ll give that a shot the next time I’m in the office. Btw, what’s the URL for that podcast? It sounds like a good resource

    Cheers!

    Also, if you use Soapbox instead, you can get 400×300, and in better quality as well…

    I was placing around with the H.242/AVC encoder in the quicktime tab in both Premiere Pro’s Adobe Media Encoder AND After Effect’s Render Tab and both times the white balance of the video looked really washed out!

    Check this link to see for yourself: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tYO5bvJ5slY

    I didn’t notice any setting that would mess with the colours…so I’m wondering I’m just crazy or that there is something wrong with this video.

    Thanks
