Das YouTubenen - how do I not make a FreeNAS vid a blurry mess?

[Yorick]

I created a video to walk folk through using danb35's script to create a Plex jail, move metadata from an existing plugin, and enable hardware transcode. For folk who aren't that familiar with CLI, really.

It's 1080p and looks okay locally. On Youtube, it's a blurry unusable mess, can't read anything on the desktop I recorded.

Edit: SD on Youtube, with a verified account. Locally, 1920x1080 @ 29.95 fps. Audio 44.1kHz, Stereo. MP4 file, unsure how to see the codec.

For those who have done that before: How do I fix that? Can I fix that?

What codec are you using... usually mp4/m4v with H.264 codec would do it.

 

[Yorick]

Yeah, it's H.264 with AAC audio. Odd. I'll be poking around some more.

Well, this explains it. “Higher resolutions, such as 4K or 1080p, can take more time to process. While this processing happens, your video may appear to be missing higher resolutions for several hours. Once high-resolution processing is finished, higher resolutions will be available on your video.”

Low video quality after upload - YouTube Help

When you upload a video, it will initially be processed in low quality. This process helps you complete the upload process faster. When the upload flow is complete, your video will be available t

I shall do a little more editing, and then try again.

I hope it's in English as well for us mere mortals who don't speak German ;)

 

[Yorick]

Heavily accented English. You know it :).

Take a look! I am Einen Content Creator, mein goodness. Benefits from 1080p because otherwise blurry.

FreeNAS Plex jail creation using a script

Create a Plex Media Server jail on FreeNAS 11.3 using danb35's script, while keeping metadata from an old Plex plugin install. Then, for good measure, enable...
