I tried those settings among other settings and all of my web output comes out subpar.

Check out this video/trailer i created for my upcoming dvd video magazine and you can see how “rough” it looks

also check out this footage of a person rapping in good light, also very “rough”

I used every type of setting you can think of and most of them just makes the files bigger but not “cleaner”

What did you use for settings when you exported it in the first place?

Hello!! Thank you for answer!

I did what you said, and this is the result: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8m7d0x6Tfg

I saw someone saying he has a problem with audio and video at this same forum, he said he used these settings (his video looks good https://youtube.com/watch?v=PnYPhewxiTA, but mine doesn

The 2 clips referenced in your post appear to be made with Sorenson Spark codec and not with the newer On2 VP6 codec. I cannot tell what your bitrate is.
Compressing video is about compromises;
1. Low Bitrate
2. Smooth Motion
3. Sharp Images

Your clips really challenge the compession alogrithms with all the motion going on. You can have 2 of the above choices. If you choose 2 and 3, then your bitrate should be about 1600 kbps with a screen size of 480 x 320. Make sure you use Windows media 9 or Flash 8. You may need to experiement with Key Frame placement starting at 30 frame intervals and going down.

1. Are you using Premiere Pro 2.0?
2. Are you using the Adobe Media Encoder?
3. Are you selecting H264 video as the QT codec?

The reason I ask is;
1. I cant find where to choose uncompressed audio which you should not use as it will take up half your bitrate. Choose either QDesign Music 2 or Qualcomm Purevoice at 22 khz–mono.

The reduced audio bitrate of about 48 kbps will help some by allowing more for video bitrate, but a combined bitrate of only 200 kbps is just not enough for your content at least at 360×240. Changing to 320 x 240 (square pixels) will help a little.

I’m having similar problems. YouTube gives specifications for highest quality, but I’m having trouble figuring out how to use Media Encoder to create a file of the format YouTube wants. Can anybody tell me how to do it?

Here’s YouTube’s format specification:

What’s the best format to upload for high quality?

We recommend the following settings:

* MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format
* 320×240 resolution
* MP3 audio
* 30 frames per second

Resizing your video to these specifications before uploading will help your videos look better on YouTube.
