How do you feel about upscaled videos ?

Hey guys i do youtube and i upload Minecraft in 720p, but i have noticed that youtube compression has gotten a lot worst. I have a friend that does youtube as well and he told me that he upscales his videos to 1080p and his videos look a lot clearer then mine which is weird because i use a way better bitrate.

 

This is what i use in adobe Premier: Video - 720p, 29.97 fps, CBR to 20mbps, (Render at maximum depth checked)

                                                         Audio - 48,000 khz at 320,000 

 

 

 

He uses Adobe Premier - Upscaled 720p to 1080p, 29.97 fps, CBRat 15mbps and same Audio

 

 

 

So my Question is he is getting a little better youtube compression when he upscales should i upscale as well ? I heard that you get better quality when upscaling because youtube compress 1080p because it needs more bits for Higher resolution so since it gives it more bits 720p looks better. Also should i use CBR or VBR 2

No, he doesn't know what he's talking about.

 

Scaling

Listen FOR THE BEST YOUTUBE QUALITY

 render in Avi lossless and use Handbrake to convert it to mp4 or MKV and i get the best quality in my videos with that or if you can find amvsimple that will just make the quality on YT Super clear, and scaling doesn't matter but bitrate and video format matter when uploading to yt.

upscale to 4k or atleast 2,5k, 1080p isnt really worth it.

Well i Don't have gaming vids but well here

its a old video but the quality is the same as the orignal footage/

[Rheinwasser]

so upscaling works ?

it only works on youtube.

youtube doesnt compress higher resolution videos as much so it is a higher bitrate -> better quality.

Does your friend play on consoles and believes upscaled 1080p gaming < 720p gaming?
