How to optimize your video's playback in YouTube - Page 3

Hey thanks for this tutorial, Ive had really bad issues with youtube ever since I started recording back in sunwell and this is EXTREMELY helpful to me. I just had one question. I record in 1920x1200 and Cropping the video really takes out alot of my UI or the top of my screen and I would really like to keep all of that intact. What would you suggest I do? I really like playing/recording at that resolution but youtube just destroys the quality after I render it. Thanks :)

YouTube supports 1920x1200 files and larger now, if you just upload it stock after you compress it, you should get an "Original" setting. Is that not what you are seeing?

Also: Updated original post with my new color correct settings + brightness and contrast. I use 2 filters. It was closer to the original fraps file than my last settings.

I had no idea they did that.I usually add in an intro and some music and then render as a Windows Media Video 11 at 1080p at 24fps after editing. If there is a way to edit the raw video and render as its native resolution I would more than likely do that.

On a side note, i tried downloading that ccp codec pack and it 404 errors, you know anyother place i can download it? ATM i cant customize the .mp4 like you do in the tutorial and i think that may be the key to help me make my vids better.

link works fine for me. try google for a mirror. I also doubt that has anything to do with your problem, but you are too vague for me to know.

All fixed, forgot to come edit everything out.

I see no difference between the first and second links. The third one is entirely different.

You don't want borders? Then follow the part of the tutorial dealing with borders. It's all there.

What resolution are you frapsing at? If you want 1080p and you aren't frapsing at 1080p you either have to resize to get rid of the borders and lose image quality, or deal with the borders.

You can't simply not fraps at 1080p, want to utilize 1080p, and not have borders, and not lose quality. That is impossible.

Firstly, thanks Xav for this thread. It really helped me get my first ever video up on Youtube (A Halion 25 HM kill ) with good quality when a lot of other things I tried failed to achieve the same.

I saw some earlier posts with regards to the issue that some people were not able to select the custom button for MainConcept in Sony Vegas 9 so I wanted to add what I found out here. The Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD 9.0 does not support Custom (The more expensive versions of Vegas 9 do support this) for MainConcept ( A link that says this ). However, the latest version ie Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 10 supports this in the basic version. This is around $40 more expensive than the Sony Vegas 9 ($90ish in total) but supports this custom feature for MainConcept and way more affordable for casual frapsers than the higher versions and achieves all the features you posted.
