Creating high quality video on YouTube
“High quality” and Youtube are an oxymoron. No matter how great your video looks on your computer Youtube will compress the snot out of it and convert your sound to mono.
YouTube accepts most common video formats including WMV, MPEG, MOV and AVI.
I created a test clip and then encoded in different formats and rates.
You can see the clips here

Everything looks pretty good at 640×480 or higher. I think the AVI clips looks the best but it was almost a 200meg file for a 53 second video. Depending on your software I would likely choose the 3Mbs WMV or MOV format. Also if you create a file in H.264 format I’m pretty sure Youtube will still re-encode it anyways.
