Guide to Editing, Rendering, & Uploading good quality gameplay to YouTube

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
Does OCN have any of those guides? I've searched but can't find it.

Curretly, I use Fraps and Movie Maker to edit/render videos and then upload it to youtube, but my quality sucks. Maybe it's because I game at 1600x900? Take a look at my 660 video on BF3

Any tips or links to help will do. T

Thanks,
Psyrical

If you're using movie maker for windows 7, try using the "for high definition display" preset. That should bump you up to 1080p@24mb/s.
If you are willing to learn something new and only need to do simple edits(crops, splits, watermarks, fades), you can use virtual-dub and render using x264 for better quality.

@qwertymac93, Hey thanks man.

I use to use virtualdub, but thanks to you I gave it a test again with that x264 codec. I did some research on it and it recommended I use some filters, which I did. Here's the quality. It looks good in 720/1080p, but not too good in 480p.

Working on videos myself (if you're curious). I must admit I've not found too many guides on OCN to help me produce the videos, searching online and testing seem to be the best two ways of creating a video to the quality you deem acceptable. A couple resources which I've used in the past to help me can be found below:

Quite honestly though, I've found an optimal setup for me to be fraps recording, audacity for sound, and Premiere for editing. I appreciate Premiere may not be for everyone due to it's cost and relatively higher learning curve when compared to Movie Maker. The only issue I've found is that I would love to do 1080p recordings and upload those to YouTube, unfortunately for some unknown reason, Premiere will lag like crazy when trying to do any 1080p rendering. So I'm stuck with 720p on my channel.

This should unlock the "Original" quality setting on youtube.
