Youtube video export settings in AE CS6 ?

Hi,
I've been asked to edit a few youtube vids for a friend.
They do not have originals so I've downloaded them from youtube with YTD.
Made a few edits in After Effects CS6 & now wish to render them ready for youtube upload.
I'm aware that by this stage they have already been compressed a lot & would like to prevent further compression as much as possible.
So my question is this -
What would be the recommended settings to render out the vids in AE CS6 ?
I also have Media Encoder.
Cheers

Make them look as good as you can in AE then use the YouTube presets in Adobe Media encoder to render your h.264 files. Just match the comp frame rate and frame size. That's all there is to it. You may want to jack up the data rate a bit, say from 8 to 10 for the HD presets.
Beware of copyright infringement. YouTube is getting a lot more diligent of pulling pirated videos and pirated music.

Video Export Settings

Hi guys,
I know there are other posts with similar questions. And I already checked and read http://lightroom-news.com/2009/10/28/direct-timelapse-video-export-from-lightroom/ but since this discussion there came to an end in summer 2010 I'll start a try here once again.
I already downloaded some presets and templates for video export inside the slideshow module. Unfortunately the best what I could get was 1080p @ 25fps with a bitrate of 12Mbit (--> http://lrtimelapse.com/download/). I tried to modify resolution, bitrate, codec and output format, but it doesn't work.
I checked the values for the different levels on wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC#Levels). For higher resolution I used a higher level, but it won't work.
Since LR is stating errors I changed the levels for higher bitrates as well although it wouldn't be necessary relating to the H264 standards.
And if I changed the H264 profile to HIGH or HI10, there's always an error message. In most cases with the HRD module. I read on the net that HRD in H264 codec checks the buffer.
Usually it shouldn't be a problem to use level 5.1 with 4096x2304 @ 25fps and 200Mbit/s. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. Maybe somebody can tell me how LR interprets the template sheet. What line does or means what, etc. ... maybe I'm missing out something.
And last but not least, any chances to change the codec? And if not the codec then at least the file format? I would love to see .mov rather than .mp4.
Thank You!

What you want to do ius experiment with settings to get your video to be as close to 100MB as possible every time.
If your content is talking heads telling jokes with little movement try this as a starting point.
Use Quicktime conversion - Options - Video Settings - Quality - High - Size 320 x 240 - Frames per second - 15 - Key Frame - Every 5 secs - Sound settings - Compressor - IMA 4:1 - Rate 44.1khz - 8 bit - mono - Uncheck the Prepare for Internet Streaming.
This is a wild guess and you'll probably have to change some of the variables to achieve your target 100MB.
In Video -Settings - Compress Settings - you could try Sorensen 3 or MPEG-4 and here's a couple of links that you might find helpful.

Having Audio Glitching Issues in Video Export from Premier Pro CS6

I have been exporting video for the first time from Pro CS 6. The audio I am using plays perfectly in the timeline, but after exporting, when I play it back, it sounds very glitchy and it stutters quite a bit. I really hear a "digital fluttering".
I am using fairly common H264 settings for YouTube, and have tried different formats with the same effect. The audio is 48khz at 24bit, and shouldn't be having any problems. Its actually one song, and I am not using any of the audio from the camera footage. I haven't changed the audio at all, so it's not a conversion problem.
I have even tried to re-marry the song in pro tools, but it just seems to have the same effect. I can't seem to find any threads that address this, except for one, and the solution was not applicable.
Has anyone encountered this issue and figured out the solution?
I am not asking the box to do anything less than totally ordinary, so am a bit confused on this one.

yes.
here is a sample of the video and audio

Youtube / Vimeo Export Settings

Hello Everyone
Im always trying different settings when I need to upload videos to either Youtube or Vimeo but haven really found something that I am really happy with.
Has anyone here found a set of settings they are happy with and would you be willing to share?
Thank you

I get great results for YouTube with this droplet:

Of course, it's all going to depend on your source footage. If you drop DV on this, it's not going to look good.

Choppy Export Video - Export Settings, Sequence Settings, Capture Settings

Hi all,
New to this forum and new to Final Cut Pro. Please forgive me if I ask bonehead questions... Please humor me and help me solve my problem.
First off... Equipment
CPU:
12" Powerbook G4 1.5Ghz
~1.25 Gig RAM
Camera:
Canon GL2
Problem:
When exporting video, it comes out choppy... as in three to seven frames per 45 seconds of video. The quality of the images is also poor, with horizontal lines where there is movement of the subject. The audio turns out just fine.
What I am doing now:
Capture:
MiniDV through FireWire - DV NTsc 48 khz
The footage looks good while editing... smooth
Exporting:
I have tried quite a few different settings using the Quicktime Conversion.
Ultimately, I would like to export video for the following uses:
-Full-Size .mov Files burned to DVDs to play in Quicktime (also .avi)
-DVD quality for putting together DVDs that will play on a DVD player
-Web upload
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help...
-JBH

Not 'bonehead' but certainly basic stuff...
Full size to put on data DVD:
Two options (one of which is NOT avi): File - Export - QTMovie - Current Settings - Selfcontained. This is the highest resolution you can export of your cut film. However, it will be a HUGE file size and you will only be able to fit a limited number of minutes on a 4.x gig dvd disc. Second option is to File - Export - QTConversion... Choose the highest quality from the dropdown menu and hit export. This will end up smaller... but will indeed have a 'quality' loss due to compression. Do take them OFF the disc when playing on a computer as they will choke during playback from the disc itself.
Export for DVD Player to TV (and DVD Player on Computers):
File - Export - QT Movie - Current Settings - not selfcontained. Take THAT file to COMPRESSOR and use the export presets for your length of movie. I like the 90 minute high quality 2 pass version for anything 90 minutes or less - I stay away from the 60 minute one. Do make sure you export the ac3 audio too. This will give you two files that you need to take to DVDSP to put together and build a DVD with. (else you can take the exported file before compressor and drop it into iDVD if you want). The quality will STILL be compressed, but is what it is for 'dvd quality' on a mac.
Web Upload:
File - Export - QT Conversion... pulldown to Broadband High. I like that setting as is, but if I'm working with anamorphic material I'll need to hit the OPTIONS button and change the size (480x270).
Looks like this and is 3-5 megs per minute: http://web.mac.com/captmench/Site/ThreeBoysMovies/Entries/2006/7/20_Entry1.html
Good luck,

FCE export settings for higher quality video

Hello. I'm a self-schooled newspaper video features producer and relative newcomer to Final Cut Express, shifting from Premium Elements. I've just begun using it to upload videos to my newspaper's finicky web system, which will only accept .flv files of a certain size. My modus operandi has been to export my videos as large .avi files, using Quicktime conversion and DV/DVCPRO/NTSC, with medium quality, with 16 bit sound set at 32 Khz. Then I run that .avi through the Adobe Flash Media Encoder with a frame rate of 15 fps, deinterlacing and resizing the screen to 640 by 480. This procedure (outlined by our former video editor) produces serviceable web quality video (You can see video that results from using these settings at http://wvgazette.com/multimedia). So, two questions: 1) I have created an 8-minute FCE music video for my band and wish to export it at a higher quality (for use on Vimeo) than these newspaper settings. Which of them do I change so that a higher quality video results without waiting all night for a massive file to upload? 2) And wthere might I turn for guidance on better understanding the Sanskrit of FCE video export settings for newbies? Thanks for any help.

The simplest way to produce good quality video for the internet is:-
1. File>Export Using QT Conversion.
2. The "Format" window should say, "QT Movie".
3. In "Use" select "LAN/Intranet" from the dropdown menu.
4. Click "Save" and when it has finished encoding, upload it.
Do not mess about altering audio settings, frame rates etc.
Using the above settings an 8 minute video would be encoded in around 20 minutes (depending on computer speed) and would be well under 100MB.
Is that too big?

What are the correct iphone 5 H.264 export settings?

I have scoured the internet for help trying to find the correct way in which to make a proper H.264 mp4 video file that will play on the iPhone 5. I am using Adobe Premiere CS 6. There exist presets for the iphone 4, but not the iphone 5. I tried the iphone 4 presets but they will not play on the iphone 5.
I tried checking Apple's iphone 5 video specs to make sure I am not over spec: https://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html, which says: Video formats supported: H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High Profile level 4.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats;
Here is how I have my video export settings set up in Adobe Media Exporter and the multiplexer is set to iPod:
I've tried other slight variations, but nothing will play. I am hosting these videos on a site and just trying to access them from the URL bar such as: http://harbourak.us/videos/iOS_mp4.mp4. I cannot use m4v or mov formats because of the flash script that is used on other flash supporting browsers that can convert the mp4 quickly on the fly.
If anyone has any suggestions for how to get this to work I would be greatly appreciative! Thank you!

So yeah, there is no setting I can find that allows you to properly export your video in h.264 .mp4 that will play on the iphone from Adobe Premiere CS6. What is the point? I just don't get it. It's like secretly apple has decided to not allow any mp4 to be downloaded from the web and be played on the iphone, but then lie to everyone when they say on their spec page that the iphone will play mp4s that are 640x480, 30fps, AAC 48kHz, < 2.5Mbps. Ugh, I've exported so many different versions of .mp4s and for each and everyone the iphone says "sorry, broken play button image" and no explanation. So helpful! </sarc>
Okay, you want examples that work FINE in regular PC browsers? Well, I set up a dummy page with the HTML5 embed code here:
http://housemajority.org/wp-content/themes/candidate/video-test.php. Works fine in Safari for Mac & PC.
This currently has the 640x480, 30fps, AAC 48kHz, < 2.5Mbps h.264 codec .mp4. Plays fine in Safri on the PC or Mac but not the iphone. This file completely coorelates with Apple's spec sheet so I'm at a total loss. The actual file can be found here: http://housemajority.org/vids/iOS_30fps.mp4
Other video attempts:
/vids/iOS_preset.mp4 - 29.97 fps before changing to 30fps
/vids/iOS_mp4.mp4 - 720x480 before changing to 640x480. makes no sense
/vids/H264_w29.mp4 - another version of the 720x480 version.
/vids/iOS_converted.mp4 - tried using one of those "convert videos to iphone version" shareware apps that also doesn't work.

Whats the best settings for exporting a three camera youtube video on a mac book pro

I need help figureing out Whats the best settings for exporting a three camera youtube video on a mac book pro. I use 15 or 30 fps and aI cant figurwe it out [please help

chucknoris501
What version of Premiere Elements are you using on Mac?
Export your Timeline content to a .mp4 file, using export settings which have been customized under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of the export's preset.
See Publish+Share/Computer/AVCHD and .mp4 category. The exported file is then uploaded to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
If you post the properties of your source video and project settings, I will suggest the settings for the Timeline content export to file saved to the computer
hard drive for upload to YouTube at the YouTube web site.

Right sequence and export settings in Premiere Pro CS6, video with still images

I am trying to run a video on my website (self hosted). This video, made with Premiere Pro CS6, consists of still images with different video effects.
This video is only 50 seconds, but when I transform this in the ogg, webm and mp4 format, I obtain file with large size and the quality is not good.
Could you please guide me to find out the right sequence and export settings in Premiere Pro CS6 to obtain a video for the best possible quality on the web?
A precise description of the settings would be awesome.
Thank you
Silvia

Make the export setting the resolution you want to use on the web.
Make the sequence settings accordantly to these export settings

Dynamic Link Media Server Error on Video Export CS6

Hello,
Whenever I atempt to render video or export a photoshop file as a video I get the following error:
dynamiclinkmediaserver has encountered an error
[/Volumes/BuildDisk/builds/DynamicLinkMediaServer1/main/shared/adobe/MediaCore/ASL/Foundat ion/Make/Mac/../../Src/DirectoryRegistry.cpp-283]
Continue Button.
Hitting continue does nothing and the application just hangs on the video export progress bar.
I've attempted to export several types of PSD files to video, some old, some new (made in CS6) and I always get this error. I have reset Photoshops preferences. I have uninstalled the entire CS6 suite and reinstalled it.
On a whim I decided to reinstall PS CS5 and try to export from there. Worked like a charm. Was able to export video from my PSDs like before.
I am currently running:
Creative Suite CS6 Master Collection
My hardware is:
Model Name:          iMac
Processor Name:          Intel Core i5
Processor Speed:          2.8 GHz
Memory:          8 GB
Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3
Suggestions?

Hi,
Are you still having problems with CS6 Video Export?
What Export settings are you using? (A screencapture might be the fastest way to answer that.)
Does it work if you use the default settings?
If you have time to experiment, I have some suggestions:
Would you please try/verify the following:
1. Be sure virus/security/parental control software hasn't trapped parts of Photoshop, Bridge, Premiere, Lightroom, or any Adobe app using DynamicLinkMediaServer. (Make sure the Adobe apps are added as exceptions if needed.)
2. Ensure you have the latest version of QuickTime
3. Close all Adobe applications - wait more than 30 seconds, then launch Photoshop and try to open and export the file.
- If unsuccessful, view Task Manager/Processes to verify necessary processes started up when importing video (dynamiclinkmanager.exe, dynamiclinkmediaserver.exe and Adobe QT32 Server.exe)
- If unsuccessful, please capture the full error message text.
4. Close all Adobe apps, wait 30 seconds - launch Bridge and try to open/export the file.
Thanks,
Meredith

What are the best export settings for a HD video in Premier Pro CS4?

Hi!
   I've been having so much trouble with this issue and it's something that continually frustrates my boss. I have a HD video the settings for it are
FPS 23.98
1920 x 1080, then a few lines down it says 1408 x 792
16 bit,
2 channels
48000 Hz
   What should the settings be when I make a new sequence?
             When I look at it in the window in Premiere Pro I have to contantly 'shrink' the image to fit the window, is that something I should be doing or does it indicate the sequence settings are incorrect?
But more importantly what should the export settings be? I exported a 4 minute long video and the size was 1 GB, I know that's too big.
I need to export it without loosing any quality and export another one that meets the Youtube and Vimeo limits on size.
Vimeo is 500 MB per week, sometimes I upload 4 videos per week. I think Youtube you can only upload 500 MB at a time.
I need to get smaller sizes with loosing the least amount of quality possible AND the best export settings for quality, so I guess I have 3 separate questions-
What are the best sequence settings for HD video?
What are the best export settings for HD without loosing any quality?
What are the best export settings for the size to come out around 500 MB with loosing the least amount of quality possible?
Thank You!

On the above thread I used the 5th anwer, and it's going to take about 7 hours to export a 4 minute video :/

It Stands for "Coder Decoder."
Your format is like a container for your video file. Certain containers can hold certain codecs and not others. Other containers can hold other codecs. Sometimes different containers can hold the same codecs.
This might be a bad analogy but I'll give it a try.
A coffe cup (container) can hold pretty much any liquid you drink, where a red solo cup (container) won't hold scolding water. So, the coffe cup would be your container of choice most likely because it has the most options for liquids (codecs). But, you might want a red solo cup for just a single crappy beer at a party (a moderate quality streaming video on the web). In that case, you don't need all the optoins of another container.
In Premiere Pro CC H.264 is a Container and the Codec in one option. This has been streamlined for web distrobution of video to be played in browsers without things like Flash or special players.
Were as if you choose the QuickTime Container there are over 40 codec optoins (at least on my machine with additinal ones installed) but you may run into an issue where your browser doesn't support QuickTime playback.
I would say that your container is for compatability with players and your codec is taken into consideration when looking at the quality of the compression.
Yesteraday I wrote a blog entery on Exporting from Premiere Pro and found that the MPEG-4 codec inside of the QuickTime container gave me much richer colors than the H.264 container/codec option.
I posted the link before but here it is:

Import/Export Settings for Canon T4i Video

Hey folks,
I'm new to Premiere and loving it, but I'm wondering what the best sequence settings, as well as export settings, will be for video captured from my Canon Rebel T4i camera.
I prefer to shoot either in 1080p with 24 fps, or 720p at 60 fps––what settings within premiere should I use when setting up my project, and what are some good export options for Youtube/Vimeo?
thanks!

Best export settings for video for web

Can anyone give me some advice on the best export settings for a short video that is to be viewed on the web? I have some short, say 2 minute videos that need to be placed on a website and need a reasonable file size. What would the best Format and Preset options be in Premiere? Would it be helpful to utilize After Effects to reduce file size? Thank you in advance to anyone who has some advice!!

For now, it would be on my own website or a clients website. But there may
be another possibility, I have a client that already has some videos
available for viewing on their website, looks like they are YouTube videos
that play on their site, and there is an option to "Watch on YouTube". So I
guess I would love some recommended export settings for a straightforward
video clip on my website, and if I need to explore the YouTube preset in
Premiere, let me know. Thank you, I really appreciate your answers and
help!!

Best settings for YouTube video?

I've just finished editing my first video in iMovie and would like to export it to upload to YouTube. The YouTube site asks for MPEG4 at 320x240 pixels, 30fps, with MP3 audio. But what about all the other settings in the advanced export settings? Does anyone know what they should be for best results?
Thanks in advance.

This, from Karsten Schlülter (YouTuber):
I recommend in the expert settings:
mpeg4 as comprossor
in the options:
320x240 (youtube's "native" res)
30 fps (for fast action), 15 fps (to generate smaller files for longer movies)
the bitrate slider...- 500kB/sec is an excellent quality for such res (and generates laaarge files), but the conversion at youtube adds a lot of artfifacts...
