when i render a video (i use sony vegas) it takes about 20 minutes to render!

[PkGam]

@ItCanBeDaniel It has everything to do with your computer's speed and how big your video is.

[dcantw]

you know what is wierd about my computer,it plays 360p perfectly but when i go to 480p it does not play also when i put it in 720p or 1080p it plays perfectly does anyone know why?

[PkGam]

@dcantw That's not your computer or internet then, It's Youtube.

[dcantw]

@PkGam thanks

[PkGam]

@dcantw You're welcome.

all my video's are sins i used that programme better in HD. realy. it work whit me. i have it done bevore

[PkGam]

@koendeboer1 Ummm, what?

[koendeboer1]

@PkGam never mind

[messed2552]

plus got lucky and i have the prgram your using for your videos for free since it was already on this pc when i bought it sadly i wasnt using the anti virus program that came with it but i did get a better one lol

[PkGam]

@messed2552 Oh cool!

[messed2552]

lol i use standard still cuz well i need to use less space cuz in my vid i use alot of time but maybe i should use hd since im not using much of the max spae hat i can upload at a time lol

[PkGam]

@messed2552 Well, if you are upscaling from a lower resolution to a higher one, don't bother. But if the video game is outputting in a HD signal and it's being recorded in HD you could do that since you'll have HD video from the start. But, expect the file size to increase to triple or more of it's normal value as I showed in the video at the end, as will the upload time.

[messed2552]

@PkGam so its a waste of space if its not even in HD to begin with

[PkGam]

@messed2552 Yep. If your unedited video isn't HD to begin with, upscaling it to HD won't increase the quality because all it's doing is multiplying nearby pixels. In other words, you can't ask the video editor to create pixels and detail that wasn't there to begin with.

I also explained that near the end.

So yes, it would be a waste of space and time to upscale anything.

[messed2552]

@PkGam that helps now to look for that dvd i made its like 4 hours long so thats like idk 12 parts lol and i dont wanna restart

[PkGam]

@messed2552 It depends on how you split it up actually. Like, if I edited it, I'd make it into 15 minute parts, so that would make 16 videos for me.

You won't have to restart because as long as you can copy the file off of the CD to your computer you can edit it.

[messed2552]

@PkGam i know that but i would like to use 20 mins cuz that way who ever watches it gets more then short 13-16 video thats what poeple usually use but it i use 20 min they get more then the usual and im gonna have to start over anyway cuz i cant find the hard copy of the dvd i made

[PkGam]

@messed2552 That's why I said that's just what I would use for time.

I say keep looking. The reason why is because you'll probably find it later after re-doing the parts anyway.

[messed2552]

@messed2552 if you think of it my vids would be equal to your coin vids for mario sunshine lol

[dragonman719]

PKGam Mario is humping that tree at the start of the video!!!!

this game isn't for everyone!!!!! it's for teen's!

[PkGam]

@dragonman719 lol

[PkGam]

@barriodeloco1 It doesn't matter really what you use to record, video resolution and aspect ratio always refer to the same things for a video.

You're welcome.

[barriodeloco1]

@PkGam: Oo... alright, =). Actually I was planning on getting HD PVR, but I personally don't want it much, but its completely true people I upload videos in HD will upscale, & makes it blury-er, & quality does not improve at all.

[PkGam]

@barriodeloco1 Yeah, if you are only planning on recording and uploading SD footage, the need for HD isn't necessary and may even be more expensive.

[barriodeloco1]

@PkGam: Yes indeed that's why I plan on sticking w/ Dazzle no need for the HD Quality although it looks nice still not worth it unless for certain purpose such as Partners or such.

[PkGam]

@barriodeloco1 You can upload HD video if you aren't a partner. I just uploaded 2 that are in HD today. This video and my blue/gold coin showcase one.
