  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

Also why is youtube so much faster to upload to compared to vimeo on a fast internetconection? We uploaded 1.6g on 6 minutes but the same file took perhaps 50 minutes on vimeo?

Vimeo servers are across the pond from you. YouTube servers are localized all over the world, including your country.

What was the final conclusion for the best settings to upload a 4K file to youtube then?
Additionally for people with poor upload speeds, what was the best upload settings in the H264 compression?

Thanks for this thread!

Just use what works best for you. There is no conclusive "best" setting.

While I don't have an answer for those with poor upload speeds. h.264 UHD4K with 75Mb looks "decent". You still get the encoding nonsense here and there and a loss of fine detail, but it's not terrible. Currently when watched in UHD4K it's better than any Hulu or Netflix broadcast I've seen. REDRAY looks better though and is a smaller file too.
