No Audio on Video Uploaded to YouTube

Running Movie Studio Platinum - real new at.

I've been testing out uploads to YouTube. Yesterday I manually uploaded to files through the YT website and both played fine. The first was MP4 formatted as 1920x1080 59 frames/second 55953 Kbps frame rate) as shown in the file properties on Win 8.1. The secpnd was MP4 formatted as 1920x1080 29 f/s 14488 kbps. Both of these uploads worked fine though the first one was quite slow to process.

I figured out how to use the "Upload it to YouTube" Make Movie option. I have two-factor auth turned on so I had to get an application password for YT. I uploaded a video using this option and after processing on YT there was no audio. It is basically the same project as the one above just a different option when I selected Make Movie.

Nothing on my computer or on YT is muted. I switched back and forth between the three videos and only this one uploaded through Movie Studio is missing the audio.

When a file is uploaded to YouTube using this method is a local render saved somewhere? Anyone know why I might be missing the audio?

Well now I don't know what is going on. I uploaded a second video using the "Upload it to YouTube" option and it worked just fine. The project settings were the same, I just used a different source video.

I think I'm not understanding all the different options for videos, what needs to be applied at the start of a project and what needs to be set when rendering the project for different purposes. I'll keep plugging away.

Use the Internet render templates included in Vegas, and save yourself a lot of uncertainty while you are learning.

You're right. Uploading direct to YT from Movie Studio seems convenient but it is probably best to use the template and have a local file to test before uploading.
