Downgraded Video Quality when exporting to YouTube

[Luke24620918afu6]

When I export projects with both the "Media File" and "Youtube" options selected, the final products do not have the same quality. When I open my media file the quality of the video is exactly as it should be, but when opened on YouTube, the quality is fuzzy in comparison to the original. While this is not necessarily a "do-or-die" issue, when I am trying to feature some higher quality photography it can be very dissapointing. Any tips or trouble shooting?

I actually did nothing to solve the issue which has left me puzzled. About 20 minutes after uploading the video, the video quality was back to normal on YouTube. Maybe it needed more time to process or something? I'm not sure.

OK, yes, Luke. I have seen that! It's a YouTube thing, I think. Thank for taking the time to let us know.

Cheers,
