youtube rendering videos

[tomashen]

hey guys can anyone tell me what software should i use to render videos for youtube. i tried sony vegas with so many different templates. they all ended up being pxielated a little once uploaded. and that made videos look unatractive to me. small text was hard to read kind of . was blocky.

well if you don't need an editor and just need a program that renders Id use handbrake . handbrake is a very popular renderer. using default settings should be fine for youtube. just load your video and click encode

Handbrake is good and I'll throw out another free one - MPEG Streamclip. If you decide to try it then download it from the official site which is squared5.com. What format are the source clips in (.avi, .mts. .mov, mp4, etc.)? What specific templates did you try in Vegas? Did you try making any adjustments to the templates?
