Stephan Mann,
I’m pretty sure it wasn’t the way i shot the footage, the area was well lit and held steady with a tripod in some shots.

On the Sony Vegas preview, the video looks marvelously clear!
So clear it hurts my eyes.

But uploading to YouTube is where the quality gets killed.
I mean i’m not expecting it to be as clear as it plays on my computer but YouTube just degrades it so much that it’s not satisfying to watch and I’ve seen better results with other people, it feels like i’m the unlucky one here! Lol.

Just need help finding out the right format.
I’ve recorded it as .mov just like any other dslr it outputs it’s files as mov.
I’m assuming .mp4 is the best way to go since vegas 11 doesn’t offer .mov extension. Need help with render settings that can boost the quality for YouTube playback.

I wasn’t actually using the bluray interlaced render option it just happen to be selected when i took a screen shot.

Anyways about using 2 pass, what does that exactly do? Sorry I’m not very experienced with sony vegas yet.

Also what average bitrate do you recommend?
Just max it out all the way or what?

Annnnd… if you don’t mind me asking what
is bitrate and how does it interfere with the quality?
