Sony Vegas 13 - 1080p settings? :(

[Nadbuddy]

Hi!

Before you start posting links of YouTube videos i want to tell you that i've watched alot of videos and most of them use very different settings and i'm not sure which one of them is the best.
I'm trying to render @1080p 30fps with good quality (apparently some rendering settings shows worse quality).

I've been playing around with the settings for the past 3 hours and the results i get are shit, i'm not really sure how YouTubers get the perfect settings.. It'd be helpful if someone could help me out with the settings.

The topic might be really shot but i'm urgently calling for help as i've been watching videos and messing around with the rendering settings for the past 3 hours 🙁

Choose the codec to produce the video (wmv, mpeg4, etc) then choose the resolution.

What i meant was some sort of "proper" quality codec.
Not all of these have good quality 🙁 and i have a hard time picking and knowing the good ones, so thats why im in need of help.

Also configuring bitrate and such, i haven't really understood them.

I've used them all for Youtube. Initially mainly wmv. Now mpeg 4.

I've got a pc. I use PowerDirector with multiple cheap cameras. I don't have problems with codec conversion - never need them. PD loads anything I've found so far and outputs with a choice I haven't found lacking.
