Dire_Wolf Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 When uploading Runescape recordings (videos) to Youtube, the video does not come out as clear as it should be. Is this supposed to be like this? Open the two screenshots below in tabs (and switch from screenshot tab 1 and 2, and you will see the difference in quality) Screenshot of the game area recorded: Screenshot of the uploaded video: I have tried HD/HQ on Youtube, but the quality of the video is still blury. I hope i can make the uploaded video as clear as in-game quality IF that's possible. Really stinks that i can't use Runescape HD, and also that the upload has to be like that. I hope to have as clear uploaded video as this:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EedqQtHRht4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 His video, by default is loaded to HD which may be a factor, I notice that yours is not. Flash, however, is a heavy means of viewing video and it may well be the conversion that is sapping your quality. Could you post a link to your video so that I may compare watching it in both HD H.264 and flash? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's link:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKAhrTFgr_U I find the result pretty good, but it's not as clear as in-game quality. Even if change it into HD or HQ, it's still blury. I used this video guide:http://webvideouniversity.com/podcast/video/2009/02/06/wvu-24-youtube-secrets-crystal-clear-video-in-youtube-revisted/ It's very helpful. But like i said, it's still blury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura Posted December 5, 2009 Share Posted December 5, 2009 It wants me to log in to view it and I don't have a YouTube account. :mellow: But here are a few pictures to show the difference between H.264 and flash, in that order: A slight difference, but I don't think it's to blame in your problem. Is it blurry before you put it on YouTube? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dire_Wolf Posted December 5, 2009 Author Share Posted December 5, 2009 Sorry, i made it private yes but i thought giving URL gave access to it. But i made it public, so here's link again:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tKAhrTFgr_U And no it's only blury when i upload it to Youtube. Another thing that came up as i made this thread, my videos does not cover all of Youtube frame for some reason. I mean it don't fill the space, would be nice to do that without affecting quality of the video. I don't know what H.264 or Flash are, but it seems i have Flash as it's as blury as my videos.

If you crop your video to the proper size it will get rid of the blurriness. Oh and about the H.264 and flash, I guess it kind of added a bit of complexity to this thread, but I'll try and explain. Flash and H.264 are two different plug-ins used to play audio and video. When you upload to YouTube, your video is converted into both H.264 and flash where the former is used for things like the iPhone and the iPod Touch where flash is not used. Flash is used by most computers and is pretty much the conventional standard for adverts and movies (but there are many others). You can use both to watch YouTube videos.

And Youtube is scaling (making it fit the space), and because of that it gets blury? But what is the proper size then? :thumbup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what the native size is, but I'm guessing it's one of those options listed in the video (I've never uploaded anything to YouTube) 320x265, 425x344, 480x385 or 640x505. But I just measured your video and I'm pulling up 640x360, which is, I'm guessing, the 16:9 format of 640x505? 640x360 is the actual size of the player, and that's the size I would try.

Dire_Wolf Posted December 6, 2009 Author Share Posted December 6, 2009 I will try, but it looks dark. I have done so many tests that i am getting tired. But i wonder if the bluryness could be because of the record frame rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
