Best YouTube Formats We get asked a lot about the best format to upload video to YouTube and about size/length limits. Here's what YouTube says about these issues: How long/large can my video be? There are two ways to upload your video: by using our Single File Uploader and the YouTube Uploader. Depending on which upload method you choose, your videos can be up to 100MB or up to 1GB. Videos uploaded through YouTube's Single File Uploader have to be under the 100MB file size limit. The longer the video is, the more compression will be required to fit it into that size. For that reason, most videos on YouTube are under five minutes long and there is a 10-minute length limit for all videos. You can compress your video using movie editors, like Windows MovieMaker or Apple iMovie. Programs like these allow you to edit your videos, add soundtracks, and compress file sizes. If you choose to use the YouTube Uploader, your video can be up to 1GB in size. Learn how to use the YouTube Uploader to upload large or multiple files here. What's the best format to upload for high quality? + Video We recommend the following settings: MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format 640x480 resolution (* most updated recommendation) MP3 audio 30 frames per second Resizing your video to these specifications before uploading will help your videos look better on YouTube. |

also, re: 10-min length limit, there used to be a 10+ type account you could apply for, but they are no longer offering those. however, people who got them can still keep them, so occasionally you see vids longer than 10 min.
