Updated YouTube Encoding Guide

My search for the perfect video hosting sharing solution continues.

One good guide to preparing content for YouTube was Brian Gary's article Encoding for YouTube Using Compressor, which he published on Keystone.net on March 12, 2007. Well, lucky for me, on Monday Brian published an updated guide called YouTube Encoding: Locked & Loaded.

I'm going to try this other guide and see if I get better results out of YouTube, and also see if I can modify this for publishing to Viddler. My "Little Birdy" Viddler posting last night was an encoding based on Brian's 2007 guide, modified slightly for Viddler.

Who was it that took that cool picture of my face behind the video camera at AppleCon. We commented that it looked very Borg. It was either barondave or kalikanzara, in the game room. Can one of you send it to me? Thanks.

Trying out the AppleCon id overlay now.

Of course, here is the YouTube version for comparison:

Do you like the AppleCon id overlay? Yes, I intentionally had it cross over onto the video a bit, off of the black. It would be to easy for someone to take the video and remove it from just the black.

The little feedback that I've gotten back has agreed with me that the Viddler videos look better. So say we all?
