Am using Vegas 7 to do some video editing which has been brilliant, but wondered if anyone knew the requirements, best codec, size, etc and basic settings in Vegas to upload to myspace?

I have tried finding a help page on myspace for videos but haven't found anything!

I think they are using Flash player 9 and some videos on there look really clear with stereo sound! Is this "ahead" of Youtube? are myspace videos better quality now than Youtube?

I have the RIVA FL player convertor to convert to .flv if needs as vegas doesnt do it yet does it?

Any settings, or best codec to render to ie: .avi, mpg, etc for myspace would be great.... maybe they accept full .avi files now as long as they are under 100mb limit???

Thanks

I've found that Quicktime is the safest bet for all video hosting sites. MySpace takes AVI pretty well.

One thing: Big frame sizes (don't upload that 1920X1080 project full-sized!) sometimes bollix the ffmpeg and ON2 encoders MySpace and other sites use. Keep 'em under 720X480 for best results.
