Help with render on YouTube

Hello everyone!

I have problems with the quality of the video after rendering on YouTube. Please tell me the settings, I set everything to maximum in OBS, the render settings are also maximum, but for some reason, when rendering video in 4K, the video in 1080p looks bad, this is considering that the YouTuber who also shoots through OBS and edits through Vegas Pro, his quality in 1080p is perfect and without pixels, please help me make the settings. Please answer if you are confident in your answer and know how to help and know the solution to the problem. (Im using Vegas Pro 22 trial at this moment, but soon i will buy full)

 I guess that is YT fixing it for me

@Gid Ahh, I remember now. I really enjoyed watching your videos.

Yes, YouTube will auto-level your audio, that way it won't blow up my headphones. I think it bumps everything down to the lowest common denominator, and then normalizes it.

It is a really tough call to level machine sounds, but I suppose it does add value to the overall feel. And the DRC likely explains where YouTube is dealing with the db difference between something running, and then not.

Table Saw vs. Gluing. 😀

My content is mostly outdoors, where I might be dealing with wind or noisy Loons. I can level the human voice, which is easy, and an area that I prefer YouTube not to touch.

@Gid You are getting AV1 encodes at 1080P so that's a good sign you get high quality VP9 at 1080P

@Former user Thanks, why does your image show the av01 & mine says vp09 in UHD & 1080p? Or is this a dumb question & I'm missing something 🤦‍♂️🙃😂

@Gid In youtube settings you change preference to always use AV1 where available. Previously I had found AV1 quality better than VP9 (when VP9 was still high quality for everyone) haven't compared it lately

@mrflenty There's no point to uploading in VP9 or AV1, Youtube re-encodes all video uploads. You may have heard that previously it was possible to make youtube act as a host and not re-encode your files, but that was a long time ago, You uploaded in flash format (flv) but there is no way to do that today.
