Youtube converts every file in its own format and that's why you lose quality. It's always like that with Youtube. If you are exporting it in your computer then you need to find some other codec and see what works the best. Mp4 is a good one. If you want to capture video directly into the computer then use option "capture" from the file menu. It's called "capture" in almost every video editing software. Your camera needs to be connected and recognised by the program before the program let you use that option. After that you can apply some effects like brightnes/contrast, sharpen, color balance etc... and render the video in a different format.

There's a Virtual Dub which is a free software, you can download and try it out mate. It is a linear video editing tool, which means you have one video track and then you put the videos on the timeline on that track, no layers/multitrack. If you want a cheap non linear video editing software that works good, check out Vegas Movie Studio, it's around 50$ and well worth the money.
BTW, what model of camcoder do you have? Does it have Firewire connection? This post has been edited by Ivan Milenkovic: Mar 15 2009, 10:03 PM -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

Tell me mate, can you stream your video directly into the PC via USB, or USB connection serves only as a link to access the memory card data, so you can copy it on PC.
I'm asking cause if you can stream the video from camera directly to PC, it would possibly have much better quality. Try with virtual dub, it has a screen capture function, and let us know what you did please. cheers Ivan -------------------- - Ivan's Video Chat Lesson Notes HERE

When you are streaming the file is usually stored as DV AVI file which is uncompressed video format. It has .avi file extension. You should edit the video in Virtual Dub, and use some kind of codec to compress and render the video to a more smaller file size. Smaller file - less quality.
The most common used codecs are dvix, xvid, flash video, H.264 (MPEG4 AVC, best to use). You can choose any of these formats to compress the image, and it is best to tweak the options a bit until you find a suitable size/quality ratio. In general every video you put on YT will be compressed even more, so be carefull about the settings you put there - there's an page on YT with instructions on what are the best settings for video resolution and quality, so you can use those settings to make a file in Virtual Dub.

Can Vegas Movie Studio capture video stream directly from cam aswell? The program looks nice so if it can do that i'd sure buy it, its nice to have all in one program. I can't really find out on the site if it can capture directly, and i downloaded the free-trial but it seems like i installed it before and didn't try, so the 15day timer ran out. Yes it can. I do that every day -------------------- Check out my <a href="https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/instructor/Emir-Hot" target="_blank">Instructor profile</a>

It definitely can, and then some. Very smooth workflow is something that makes Vegas great choice for video editing.

Vegas should enable you to capture directly and with good quality..Also it enables you to render files in various formats so it will definitly keep the image looking as when it was recorded.
