Loss of quality when uploading video

[Riff88]

Hallo,

I've posted this question on a Youtube forum but can't seem to get help.

I have an 11 minute .AVI video which consists of animations and regular video footage (such as music videos)

When I playback the video on my computer, it plays just fine, no glitches, etc.

After uploading to Youtube, some of the animation parts of the video are not as fluid as they should be, certain animations seem to pause for a millisecond before moving on again.

it's extremely annoying.

Any advice to correct this is appreciated!

Should I just try and upload again?

my guesses,...

it might be that:
a. the decoder they use to decode your material does not support the audio- and/or video-formats you embedded into the .avi container
b. the content you uploaded it vfr
c. the frame rate your video has is not the same the video on youtube has, so there might be a not so properly done frame rate conversion involved

Thanks, Selur for your reply.

I've uploaded many .AVI videos to Youtube in the past, and they all play just fine.

Perhaps, it could be just a fluke, I'll try and upload it again.
