Can this "non-smoothness" be avoided during rendering?

This issue of "non-smoothness", the best way I can describe it, happens often. It's not Youtube doing it, it's the rendered version. Sometimes it's also a matter of the image being more pixelated, which seems to occur on dynamic parts rather than static. I'm using VegasPro15. It doesn't matter if I have nothing else running on my PC. It just happens in practically every video I render.

My PC won't allow the latest version to work, but if there's not a way to have a better, smoother result with my current version, maybe a later version has resolved this issue? You can see an example in the following video link, (go to 12:48) before the "non-smoothness" occurs.

I've been using Vegas for many years and have my version tweaked as best I know. It runs well during editing. It's only the final rendered product that lets me down in spots. My specs are listed on my profile FYI. Thank you for reading and any advice you may provide.

did you make sure you selected the right resolution in the youtube playback?

Yes, that's the first thing I checked knowing that both YouTube and Vimeo are not unknown for streaming lower resolutions if they consider your system cannot handle them.

To follow up, I'm sorry to say, but I might be shelving Vegas. I did a test rendering a 1hr35m at 1080p with CapCut last night and it only took 25 minutes! Vegas takes me muuuuch longer than that. The result was very good. 4k visual results are so good and quicker to render than Vegas. And that's just the free version. Thanks for all the advice guys, but I don't want the struggle anymore. I just do simple video and want a good uploaded result, so it looks like CapCut is going to be my go to editor now.
