Hi Bruce J -
There's a significant difference between using PDR's FB/YT uploader & uploading directly through your FB page or YT channel.
Direct uploads are sent to FB or YT as you produced them. PDR's uploader renders to
WMV before uploading. Neither YouTube nor Facebook processing, in my view, does a great job of maintaining PQ, but I always upload directly to my channel or page rather than using PDR's uploader.
For comparison, here's the same short video with a mix of random clips:
Direct upload to Facebook (MP4 1920x1080/30p @ 15Mbps)
Using PDR's FB uploader (WMV 1920x1080/30p @ 12Mbps)
Direct upload to YouTube (MP4 1920x1080/30p @ 15Mbps)
Using PDR's YT uploader (WMV 1920x1080/30p @ 12Mbps)
DirectorZone via PDR's YT uploader (WMV 1920x1080/30p @ 12Mbps)
Original produced file (MP4 1920x1080/30p @ 15Mbps)
Cheers - Tony
