I don't know if this happens to anybody but recently I've ran into issues with my video quality being absolute shit. This usually is more noticable if there is a lot of motion in the video. When there is motion in a video, the video gets blurry and pixelated. Popular gaming channels like Pewdiepie, Yogscast, etc, have videos that are clear and I really don't understand at all. I tried increasing the bit rate which made my file size huge but still look like crap on Youtube. I've tried other formats to render in and that still resulted the same. 

 

Here are my rendering settings.

I'm running out of ideas on fixing the problem and I love making videos ever since I got my hands on a camera and this problem I'm having now is really TRAUMATIZING ME.

Any help? That would be really appreciating!

 

Here is a video that represents my problems.

I'm not really seeing what you mean, for me I usually render in .wmv rather than .mp4 and the quality is great, I also render in 60fps even though YouTube only playsback 30. It may be video codecs, it may be YouTubes compression but from what I've seen here it looks fine.

For real? I usually see blurriness during motion in the video when I watch the video in fullscreen.

Your vid is clear as day dude, it may be your internet connection when watching the video back but yeah, no issues as far as I can tell.

It could be my internet. It's been having strange things going on lately.

If it's buffering through from 240>360>480>720(>1080>Source), it'll look like that for me. Once it fully buffers, it's up to my internet to not have huge packet loss for it to not stutter but it will look fine.

It likely has to do with your internet as stated by others, but that's only because I don't know if hardware affects flash players in such a way. Mobile quality looks a bit fuzzy and/or washed out/white to me (what is shown in posts on the forums is always mobile). I'd check to see if your flash player is up to date as well, just for kicks.

I really don't pay attention to internet a lot. Does showing my internet speedtest help? http://prntscr.com/3052r3

If that were your actual speed, you should have zero problems with Youtube at 1080p and likely higher (not sure on how much bandwidth you need for 1200/1440/etc).

However, I'm with the people that believe ISPs prioritize packets coming from specific addresses like speedtest.net and other internet speed testing websites. Even if my internet is actually getting slower over time because of whatever according to my speedtest.net results, starting from day 1 of having 25 down and 5 up, I never could watch 720 or 1080p video (as far as I remember). It's more likely your ISP is throttling you than a hardware issue or something else in my opinion.

Just by taking a glance around the web, and if you're not having this type of issue on other sites such as dailymotion, twitch.tv, bing videos, cnn, etc., I would have to guess that your ISP is having problems or there's something wrong with the network you're using to send/recieve information from Youtube. This could be a regional issue, something to do with a server nearby in your state/city/wherever, Youtube servers that route to your area, or the network your ISP is using experiencing a heavier load than normal for whatever reasons or maybe damage to a line somewhere. Edit: Some of this will affect other data streams like twitch, netflix, etc. but I wanted to mention it anyway.

If this persists for about.. I'd say 1-2 days longer, I would call up the ISP and ask what's up/see if they can fix it for you somehow maybe.

I can watch 1080p videos just fine no waits and no struggles same with Twitch, Dailymotion, etc. It's just that when I upload a video to Youtube that's what the problem occurs with the blurriness and pixelation of my videos. I'm really, really frustrated with this issue. It's been going on for at least a year and a half now in my Youtube years. I could probably contact my ISP (Midcontinent) about the issue and see if they can resolve this issue.

I'll upload another one of my videos to see if the results are the same.

OHHHHH, I found loads of information on that!

Try uploading/rendering your video files as an .mp4.

Wow, I'm a dunce if this was clearly what you were asking about in your original post.. That has to do with a rendering issue. If you were uploading/rendering content in .wmv, Youtube no longer accepts it as a video format as of mid 2013 (around August).

Jeeeeeezus, I am terribly sorry. The .mp4 thing should fix this for you. Edit: I really cannot apologize enough. Wow. Such an easy fix. Also, this might take longer to process videos.

Nah it's cool. Though the only problem is, I've been getting problems with rendering MP4 as well but this is a Sony Vegas issue. Like when I render with MP4, the rendering randomly renders no frames in the video or we could say "freezing" in one spot, that's why I rendered WMV in the first place. GPU acceleration doesn't work properly and even if I'm not rendering with CUDA somehow it crashes. Yeah I know I'm in a tough spot with rendering MP4.

I'll try to look into it more but I'm not particularly well-versed in video editing/rendering (I am sure you can tell). Might be able to figure out something that'll fix the Vegas issue.

Sorry to hear anyway, but the wmv thing is definitely your problem with the Youtube uploads.

I kinda likely disagree about the WMV part as being my problem. I just uploaded at least 2 videos that are in a MP4 format (fixed the issue with Sony Vegas) still resulted the same thing and there is a huge difference with the video quality on Youtube vs the video quality on Windows Media Player.

 

Youtube (1080p Fullscreen): http://prntscr.com/30up9o

 

Windows Media Player (1080p Fullscreen): http://prntscr.com/30upsb

 

I really don't even know why it's causing this. Any solutions?
