Render Test - Sony Vegas - MainConcept AVC/AAC - 1072p - 10M bps - Color Corrector - Pan/Crop

Stopka I've been subbed for sometime and I enjoy your technical feedback of Vegas. My Q is, why 1072p? why not 1080? Also I've been recording with wmv for quite some time, yes I know H.264 is better but I don't think outside watchers pick up the difference when they watch my vids in 720p. Save on so much space it's crazy, which you probably already know.

@SpotTheOzzie Because it's bug from Youtube side. When you upload video with 1080p, Youtube reencoding your video and on pixels will be have some blend or something like that and it doesn't look good. You need to get this width and in this case height from 1080 lines down to a number that is divisible by 16 (1080/16=67.5 bad, 1072/16=67 good), or you can go up to 1088p (1088/16=68 good), but you will be have black borders on your video, and this is what you don't want.

Don't forget crop your video in Sony Vegas, you lose 8 pixels from 1080, but quality will go up (project and render settings must have height 1072). You can do some test with two videos, add high quality picture (png, bmp) with some text in Sony Vegas (your test pattern), render and upload them on YouTube, one in 1072p and second in 1080p and compare them.

@StopkaPeter Oh nice, I'll just take your word for it seeing as though you've done your homework. I never have uploaded anything in 1080, it's all 720 at best but I'm buying a new monitor which means I'll be doing 1080 from now on so that's good to know.

[StopkaPeter]

@SpotTheOzzie 720p video uploaded on YouTube has good width/height, this format you does not need crop or modify. (1280 / 16 = 80 and 720 / 16 = 45)

niceiness , although i bet that 40 sec vid took about 5 gig of space

[StopkaPeter]

@AFGuidesHD No but closely :), 40sec have about 40-50MB.

[iGate7]
