OK, it sounds like one of these things is happening:
-- you're not using the correct upload settings when uploading the video file;
-- you're not selecting the HD version of the video to play on YouTube; or,
-- the video file isn't properly encoded prior to upload

For the starting time one, what options does YouTube give yous when uploading the video, if whatsoever? Besides, it plainly automatically converts all videos to a xvi:9 aspect ratio if they aren't already in that format (4:3 vidoes get "pillars" on the left & right sides).

For the 2nd one, understand that (similar Facebook) YouTube past default shows a lower quality video, unless y'all cull to watch a higher quaility version. Even videos that are uploaded at 720p or 1080p resolution, by default, will testify upward as either 320p or 480p. You tin still lookout man the higher-resolution video, just you have to manually select that version (if it's available). Click on the gear icon & select the quality that yous want.

For the final one, try:

Appears to have recommended video/sound & format encoding settings to use for the video file before uploading it to YouTube.

Appears to take recommended video/audio & format encoding settings to use for the video file before uploading it to YouTube.

Thanks for the reply, I went to that link, and I have a question about it.

At one part it says

Video codec: H.264

Progressive browse (no interlacing)
High Profile
2 sequent B frames
Closed GOP. GOP of half the frame charge per unit.
CABAC
Variable bitrate. No bitrate limit required, though we offer recommended bit rates below for reference
Chroma subsampling: 4:2:0

how would I check if my video has progressive scan, high profile, 2 consecutive B frames, etc.?

Depends on the source of the file. If information technology was created by conversion from another file format (i.e. converting from AVI to WMV), and so yous would want to bank check the settings in the conversion program. If it was created from another device (i.e. digital camera, digital video recorder, etc.), you can check the manual for the file specifications it uses, or check on the vendor'due south support page. If it was created by a screenshot program (i.e. AMD's Raptr), the Assistance file or transmission should have the file specifications at that place.

In that location might also be some programs out there that tin can clarify a file & determine what its settings are, but I don't really do video editing, so it'southward starting to go out of my areas of expertise. However, the iClarify site (which is apparenlty a plan for Macs that tin scan a file) said that GSpot can exist used on Windows PCs in place of iClarify.

I had the aforementioned problem today with my uploaded videos on Youtube.

They were not in 1080p & I could only watch them in 720p.

I found out it was a Chrome extension that was bugging the channel called (Magic actions for YouTube) & how I fixed information technology was, I deleted the Magic actions for YouTube extension.

Then, I added the extension back to Chrome without changing the Enable Auto HD & Force player blazon settings.

At present my videos are back at 1080p.

YouTube compresses all of their videos regardless of the resolution. Y'all can improve the quality by rendering it out in 1440p or college and so uploading information technology, because all of those videos go a better codec, called VP9, which volition look meliorate even on the lower resolution settings. And, 1440p+ also get higher bitrate from YouTube. You tin find the codec of any video you are watching by right clicking => Stats for nerds. Commonly it will say something like vp9 or avc1.XXXX.

Usually it will say something like vp9 or avc1.XXXX.

The made my 1080p recorded motorcycle videos look much better. I could record in 4K just it uses up too much retention and battery on my Sony FDR X3000 and HDR AS300s. The 1080p video looks cracking when I render at 1920x1080 15MPS bitrate but when I upload to youtube it can get blurry. From at present on in I will render my 1080p videos at 4k and upload to Youtube.

OK, information technology sounds like ane of these things is happening:
-- you're not using the correct upload settings when uploading the video file;
-- yous're not selecting the Hard disk version of the video to play on YouTube; or,
-- the video file isn't properly encoded prior to upload

For the first ane, what options does YouTube give you when uploading the video, if any? As well, information technology obviously automatically converts all videos to a 16:9 aspect ratio if they aren't already in that format (4:iii vidoes get "pillars" on the left & right sides).

For the 2d ane, empathize that (like Facebook) YouTube past default shows a lower quality video, unless yous choose to spotter a college quaility version. Fifty-fifty videos that are uploaded at 720p or 1080p resolution, by default, volition prove upward as either 320p or 480p. You tin can still watch the higher-resolution video, only yous have to manually select that version (if information technology'due south bachelor). Click on the gear icon & select the quality that you want.
