Hello. I just finished a 4 minute multi media project in premier pro. The project contains high quality images and audio of a recent shoot. What codec and settings should i use to get the HQ or HD options on Youtube. When uploaded and tested on youtube, the last version I used did not give me those options and of course the image quality was poor.

I prefer to export and upload DNxHD to YouTube.  You'll need a decent Internet connection though.  The files are large.

In Export Settings, choose H.264 as format, then under Presets there are several for YouTube, just match up frame size and frame rate of course to match your Sequence.

Thanks

Thanks for the quick response SAFEHARBOR11 but still having trouble. When i export the project with these settings and I watch the video on my desktop with quicktime the quality is spectacular but when i upload to youtube the quality is low and the HD options do not appear. Only 240p, 360p and auto. Any other suggestions?

Hey, I just noticed something. It must take a while for the HD option to be available on Youtube. I went back to check the video again and the options were there. I guess I got it right. How about that.
