A few things have cropped up in the completion of my latest AH community videos so I need to share to help other people who are having the same issue I am. I'm gonna chronicle this point by point to help people along so they dont have to read this as a whole and can just skip to what issue they are having but first I need to explain my workflow so people can understand where I'm coming from.

A few things have cropped up in the completion of my latest AH community videos so I need to share to help other people who are having the same issue I am. I'm gonna chronicle this point by point to help people along so they dont have to read this as a whole and can just skip to what issue they are having but first I need to explain my workflow so people can understand where I'm coming from.

My workflow is as follows:
I record on a Hauppauge 1221 model that records at 60 frames per second in 720p resolution
I transfer the data into a Final Cut Pro and edit and export them at .mov with h.246 codec

OK with that out of the way here is what I had to do to get youtube to accept my videos, as there seems to be some encoding errors or something going on with the main site. So for now this is the workaround for it.

Step 1)
First go to this website: www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-mac.html
This is a program that helps you convert files into a variety of other file formats.

Step 2)
After installing the program you will get this screen.
-you open files by File - Open Files

Step 3)
When Exporting your going to get a lot of options but go with .AVI

This will bring up this prompt which should default to the DIVX codec, if it does'nt make sure it does.

Then click the options button (Do if your using HD footage if now your SD footage should export properly though if it doesn't IE you get a blank screen with just the audio playing when you try playback.)

Then just go back to the previous menu click make .avi in the lower right hand corner and after that it will export, even gives you a preview window though really it serves no purpose.

Then upload the .avi. you'll keep your HD looks AND get around those pesky problems with youtube, saving Caleb some trouble while your at it :P
