hi, basically im trying to encode a raw 1080p avi file from sony vegas. i do that part but everytime i upload it to youtube it gets destroyed, like really badly.

basically, only thing i tried so far is changing the bitrate ranging from like 18 000 all the way to 26k
but everytime the video ends up being the same awful quality
this is the last video for reference, where i used 26 000: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4dcKOsCSN8
also the handbrake settings (sorry for the enormous image):

and yeah, im kinda lost here because in windows it looks great and all. is there something im missing here, because my older videos didnt get destroyed as much and they were done basically the same way
edit: also the audio seems to be completely fucked aswell???
edit2: ok the audio is messed up because of me

Youtube should have a worse quality due to the compression they force onto the videos. I'm not sure exactly what it should look like because I haven't seen the original however if you are trying to compress very large .avi files (more than 1gb), my mate wrote a script that compresses that.

I can upload the script however it is fairly large (around 120mb or more 14mb in .7z). Personally it worked great for me, it essentially compresses .avi files to .mp4 (EDIT: then adjusts the settings for youtube, output can be changed depending on ffmpeg)

To use the script, you first have to move the avi file to the folder (the one with the loop batch and the other .exe's) then run encode.bat. It should tell you when its finished (both the original and compressed versions will be there)

I'll paste the link when its finished (Australian internet) : here

Ok, first of all, YouTube always recompresses your video, no matter what render settings you use. If you rightclick on your video and open "Stats for nerds" you can see that it was recompressed with avc1.64002a codec. Any other fragclip with good quality was recompressed by vp9 codec(see for yourself and compare the quality). The problem should fix itself once YouTube decides that your vids get enough views.

However, there is a way around this. You have to add a filter to your video in YouTube video editor(LOMO is the least cancerous one, let me know if you find something better) and save the changes. After recompression is done, refresh the page for like 15 times and see if it has vp9 codec. Check back in 15 minutes if it doesn't.

It is also important to not to save it as another video. If you do that you will get a vp9 codec as well, but the amount of pixelation will be fucking insane.

As for the audio, try to change it to 256kbps. Default HandBrake audio settings are fucked.
