I like this guy. He takes these concepts and really puts it right in front of you.

I paused the video and shared that timestamp with my friends, just because of that. :v:
I love Tom Scott.
when he started lowering the quality with snow and confetti, i felt a strong urge to clicc dat motherphuccin like button
Good timing, I had a problem with bitrate yesterday while rendering a video. Found out the hard way that for an HD video, you're gonna want at the very least 4 million bits per second.

Basic rule is with 720p you use between 4500~5500 depending on motion, 1080 you bump it up to 5500~8500 to compensate for the higher resolution.
Or you just use a high bitrate for everything and let the video site manage the rest.
This does make a good point though, bitrate is everything when it comes to video.

If youre uploading a 720p video to youtube on a normal account, it limits the bit rate quite severely. I had some videos up a while ago with a high contrast between blacks and bright moving stage lights on a live performance. The video was originally 5000kbps, upon uploading to youtube it caused huge colour banding and made it all look awful. Probably somewhere in the region of 1500-2000 but i never bothered to look up that figure
I always wondered why that [URL="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qed9pplueYc"]BIG WEED[/URL] video always fell to fucking pieces once the flashing colors appear.

Or at least lossless
the fps lowered aswell in his demonstration. i've never seen that ever
It's ridiculous that Youtube allows you to upload 4K now, but you still can't do 1080p with a decent bitrate, so the way to increase the quality of your videos is to wastefully upscale them and then probably downscale them again on the player.
We really need a 1080p+ option.
Explains why some Twitch streams are a nightmare to watch and even when the streamer bumps up the quality to 1080p it still sucks :v:

Streaming is kinda different, depends on your cpu present also. Faster means itll run through the frames faster, slower will mean ot takes longer to encode which for streaming is bad since you meed the data out quickly to keep your fps up

The smart thing about streaming is that you can make those annoying overlays that has useless detail on it, making the game a bit smaller, and with more static pixels to save on the bit rate. Even some like a face cam is gonna be less intensive than the game.

I think thats more due to you uploading it in a format that is non-native to youtube, sticking to h264 and other similar codecs actually causes youtube to not transcode the original video as much.
I've yet to see youtube absolutely destroy anything I've uploaded since I swapped to codecs it utilises.
Then again it could just be me using a high enough source bitrate that the transcoding they do later doesn't effect it.
[QUOTE=343N;50382313]the fps lowered aswell in his demonstration. i've never seen that ever[/QUOTE]
Its not common anymore. But if you shove enough information at it you can run out of bits to update at a given resolution and frame rate. Was super common back in the old days of PC and cell phone video.
The more stuff that moved, you just dropped frames.

Practically speaking, all video you watch is compressed.
If you look up YouTube bitrates you've got to remember that YouTube primarily uses VP9 these days which is much more advanced than H.264
[QUOTE=smurfy;50390493]If you look up YouTube bitrates you've got to remember that YouTube primarily uses VP9 these days which is much more advanced than H.264[/QUOTE]
But the VP9 bitrates are also lower than the H264 equivalents.
Top notch video. Tom Scott is a brilliant showman and communicator. Plus, he's smart as heck!
Explains pretty well.
And I thought I knew enough about it.
