Can Anyone Help?

[LOCKNLOAD]

Hey everyone, I'm in need of some help, I'm using a Drift Ghost S and shooting in 960p 60fps and using Sony Vegas Movie Studio HD Platinum 11 but when I render the video and upload it to YouTube it looks stretched and a little out of focus compared to when I watch the video raw straight from the camera it's self. Any tips on how to sort any of this out?. Hears my first motovlog and this is what I mean.

First question, do you render to a file then upload or pump it straight to YT, if you do render and upload in one, try rendering locally first.

Also not sure YT supports 960p offhand, be worth checking. I'd have done so, but I'm on my phone not laptop.

I render the video from the software first then upload it to YouTube and 960p seems to have the best quality and POV when I watch it raw rather than 1080p as that seems to make the video flat/ squashed and stretched in a way.

1080p suffers from fisheye, but I'd not call it stretched. My latest upload is Ghost S footage if you wanted to compare.

Other option is to take the 960p and import/render it as 720 or 1080, although it may involve letter boxing.

I shall give it a go and mess around with a few things and upload some test footage

I'd say the 960p is the offender here... YouTube probably can't make sense of it ~

YouTube supports any resolution you send it (kind of, there are min and max sizes). My Portugal series is 1920x804 for example and it always displays this correctly on all devices.

This looks like a rendering error with non-square pixels or similar.

Could it be an error with setting the wrong boundaries on the video for encoding???

I've done a few tests on the camera and the software and think I have nailed it now, and I uploaded a test video to see what it was like and it looks as it's is superpose to now, so after I upload my next video the video after that should be pretty decent and not look stretched and out of focus, Cheers guys.
