Hey guys, just uploaded my first vlog, only to find that youtube lowered its quality significantly.

EDIT: I was to quick to judge, the video had an error and after a refresh of the page is now displaying full 1080... happy days!!!!!!!

It was recorded on a Drift Ghost at 1080p, 30fps. I edited it in Movie maker, cos I am poor, and saved the final product in a high quality mp4 file. It looks great playing straight from the file but after a 6 hour upload it looks shite on youtube, or at least I can only select 360 or 240 quality.. :'(

any ideas about what I did wrong?

its my first vlog and I don't wanna scare people away hahaha
 
As long as you uploaded a 1080p it will display that after encoding it, takes time. So the lower quality ones are ready first.
