  • Can’t Upload SV .m2ts video file to YouTube

    Posted by John Lee on October 17, 2014 at 6:37 pm

    I’ve been using SV for a few years now to make a merged video file from several .m2ts clips that my Sony camcorder produces. Never been a problem until now.

    The issue is I can’t get a combined video uploaded to YouTube that plays smoothly. My usual render setting is Sony AVC/MVC 1920×1080-60i, with 29.970 frame rate and 18MM bit rate . But now when it uploads, the action isn’t completely smooth looking, enough to be unsettling to watch.

    I can’t be the only one who uses .m2ts files with SV. Is there a different render setting I should use? The .m2ts merged file I create plays fine on my PC. Should I use a program to convert the merged .m2ts?

    I use Mainconcept 1080 for Internet and enable two-pass and my YT uploads look fine.

    Hmm. When I’ve tried Mainconcept Internet 1080p, it produces an .avc file that I can’t view on my PC. And when I upload it to YT, the video looks great but there is no audio.

    What do you mean by “enable 2 pass”? Is that in the custom settings? I’m not sure what you mean.

    John, why don’t you use the Video4Youtube plugin from Vegasuar? It’s free and it works.

    It also allows you to upload.

    Nigel,

    I will try it. It’s frustrating because these are the settings I’ve always used and now it produces something in really low quality and stutters.

    The version plays fine on my PC, but looks terrible on YouTube. Here is an example of how it looks. The video is somewhat pixelate and not smooth.

    Mine play fine in Windows Media Player and does have its audio included. Sounds like you have other issues possibly.
