open skype :mellow:

All the settings depend on your footage. Make sure your project file & export settings match the resolution, aspect ratio & frames per second of your clips. I can highly recommend MediaInfo (https://sourceforge.net/projects/mediainfo/), it's easy to use and reveals all important info of any media file.
I'm not a fan of the automatic adjustment, but that might be the easiest way for people that aren't much into editing.
Daffy's encoding tutorials are all outdated in terms of efficiency, quality wise they're still fine tho. People around here should start moving on to h.265/HEVC too. I've made a brief guide a while ago, but only very few recognized and used it:

.MKV is slightly superior to .MP4 by the way.

Thank you guys, Send it ARS!
You ;D

h265 is great but I don't like the fact that YT doesn't support it.

Try attempting to find a good render for PAL MiniDV tapes that YouTube wont fuck up :lol:

AnyOne Here Know how to render in youtube format on SV13

@PM: That's their fault, not ours. Unfortunately VP9 encoding ain't an option yet either...
Encoding twice (h.264 for YouTube & h.265 for local copies) takes a little longer, but no matter how you put it, it's still the faster solution below the line. Simply due to h.265's efficiency (=50% smaller files), you'll save a lot of the uploading time. That makes up for the longer rendering.
All you gotta do is change the video codec in the video tab for YouTube compatible encodes:

Using Handbrake has another great advantage, it allows GPU encoding (as shown in the pic above).
I made a little comparison using h.264:
- CPU (i7 4790K; 4,4 GHz @ all cores): 39 seconds
- GPU (HD 4600): 29 seconds
And that's just a shitty integrated GPU. I sold my GTX 970 G1 and can't test the OpenCL solution at the moment. Anyways, a dedicated GPU obviously will beat the CPU even harder. The new Polaris (AMD) & Pascal (NVIDIA) cards support h.265 encoding already. Those cards are at least 8x faster than my used iGPU and it's gonna speed up things A LOT once available.
tl;dr Encoding with Handbrake is hassle free, faster (GPU accelerated), more efficient (smaller files; faster uploads) and future-proof.

Right! listen to this guy up. He is wise. :euro:
