YOUTUBE and MYSPACE

the recent creative cow magazine describes a way to upload files without youtube compressing them. I recently followed this and there was no change in compression...although you do lose initial quality.

This only works by using something like after effects to export the file as an .flv using FLASH 7 SORENSON SPARK (not the newer flash 8 vp6)

i only did one encode but im sure you can get crazy good results with this.

Got a link to the "tutorial"? how bout a link to the video you uploaded?
 
I just did this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zfFHbmCfCMo

I used after effects export as FLV movie, then chose flash 7 sorenson spark, I made the bitrate like 1000 or something.

The file ended up being about 6.3mb

The quality you see in the youtube video is almost identical in quality (id say it lost about 5% of quality) to the flv that I exported.

Im sure that if you set the bitrate higher you can get better results.

Anyone who knows how to get good results when exporting from Final Cut Pro? Using compressor or quicktime.

I've been trying this for months now and I can't get it right. Thanks!
 
PLEASE someone who uses Final Cut Pro let me know how you get good quality on youtube...I NEED to get a video up as soon as possible and no matter what I try, I can't get it right.

Please also try to be as specific as possible. Thanks!
 
I think You tube is one of the greatest internet inventions in recent years; I've seen so much talent on there; some really inspiring material. Whats even more inspiring, is that alot of the things I've seen on there are the lowest of low in terms of production, yet are still entertaining for hours and hours. To quote of my favorite lines in the last few months, its "the Way of the Future"

I figured out how to get decent quality on you tube with sorenson squeeze .flv

But putting the same file on myspace, it looks horrible. Is there a different way to compress on myspace, should i still use .flv?

Thank you
