I have a Video iPod that I bought just to see some video podcasts and to see what my podcast would look like on an iPod, and it turns out that it is a simple matter of having Quicktime do the job for you.
I have never seen a PSP. I know, I lead a sheltered life in a community of mostly retired people. I would not object to getting a copy of Vegas just for this purpose if I really needed YouTube. But I would be more inclined to pick up Sorenson Squeeze or Procoder to get more than one task out of it. |

Here a video that I uploaded to youtube and I am satisfied with considering how poor quality youtube is . It is about 40mb for 5 minutes.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEE7ORJCS9c I think I could eek out a little more quality if I had to. Setting were as follows in Quicktime Pro. Compression H264 Quality - high Key Frame rate - 24 Encoding pass -2 Dimension 320x240 Audio AAC Sample rate 48,000 Bitrate 128 kbs Hope this helps.....

Mark,
You are right. That's not bad at all. Well done. I will investigate that method as well. |

Very nice looking video on youtube
Just went to check out some things and on the top page this video > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvWdkz8Ra54 < When the colors come out, looks great... although, not much movement. Actually all the Mr. Diety vids look great... wonder what his methods are...???

Besides being some of the funniest material I have seen in years, the videos really do have a great visual quality to them. Even the white text on black background looks fine.
Some people obviously know the secret. I am just not one of those people. |

Steven,
Yea, their quality is much superior to what I came up with. There is some elusive "sweet spot" they are using. I am not giving up and am going to keep on experimenting. I think their titles are cleaner because they are using big blocky letters. Regards

I would be happy to put a link on my web page, complete with a picture and a bio, of anyone who comes up with a great formula. You get credit and the adoration of millions of fans around the world.

This question of youtube is interesting. I do correspondent work for Rocketboom, and they are crazy into apples - which makes me a little nuts. But I have found that it's really best if I render to AVI first - using the "getting ready for web compression" setting.
Then I take that and turn it into a .FLV file. Yep, I have found that Flash gives me the most control, and looks the best - not the best when blown up to gigantic TV size, but for web size stuff, it seems to hold up the best. I used the Vegas QT encoder, and it doesn't make it. I bought the Nero 7 ultra, and did the H.264 thing. Still didn't work. Then I discovered that the only way that I could do QT in anyway that really worked was to do it on an apple. Just seems the only thing that works. But I would check out Flash 8. for web encoding.

Milt,
If YouTube allowed us to encode our own material it would be great. But they don't allow us to submit Flash. They have us submit 320X240 but the default is to show it bigger than that which makes it look bad. There are just so many things wrong, and yet they have a huge following. |
