Hello, i filmed a couple of gigs the other day( a new business). I came to upload one video which is just one of the bands songs and i obviously uploaded to youtube as most people do. When i came to watch it, i had lost a lot of quality which is very disappointing seen as I'm using a professional Canon XL2 minidv camcorder, and also its no good for business!
I searched youtube videos and came across one that told me to export using quicktime (I'm using imovies'11). So i did this, it took a while to export, i started uploading it today at about 4pm. I left my computer at my dads work as our internet is terrible at home, i left there at 7:30, it was on 40% complete, i guess its still going (time is 10:30pm). I know upload speed is important and i was uploading at about 0.500 mb/s which i know is slow, but it does go higher in the middle of the night. But the point is, the file is 2.7gb!
So my question is, how can i keep the quality without the size going out of control??
Also, what sort of upload speed would be good for uploading a file size like that, if thats the sizes that its going to have to be to keep the quality? I can get 2mb upload speed with satellite broadband that I'm looking in to.
Thanks you very much for reading, and i hope you can help a very frustrated person!!
