How to record and upload to Youtube In HD

Ok, first of all you are going to require a few programs.. I use Sony Vegas Pro 13, to render, and Fraps to record with.

Sony Vegas Pro 13 [ Can use trial, but I only use the payed version, other ways to get this too.. :v ]

Fraps Set Up:

Anyways, with fraps you want to have a set up like this:
General Tab -



FPS Tab -



Movies Tab -


[ Screenshots isn't needed, just ignore this tab. ]

Now, to record hit F9 And to stop the recording, also again hit F9.
You know if it is recording is the FPS Counter ( The yellow numbers in the corner of your screen )
Is Red, if it's yellow, it is not recording.

Now, assuming you have a clip recorded just navigate to the C:/Fraps/Movies folder, do this by following this:
Press start button on your computer, then go to ' Computer ' ( Wouldn't let me screenshot, sorry. )
Now you're here, go to 'Local Disc'



Inside your C drive, you should see a folder called fraps



Open fraps, and go to movies.



Now, when you're inside the movies folder, you should see all the things that you have recorded



Anyways, now you know fraps is set up.

Sony Vegas Pro 13 Set Up:

When opening Sony Vegas Pro you will think ' I'm never going to learn this. What the f*ck?. '
But really, it's not that hard.
First of all, drag your clip from 'movies' to the sony vegas thing here:
Now, with your clip in, it should look like this:


[ 2 Layers - Top = Video, Bottom = Audio. ]
Now, when your clip is finished, make sure the yellow cornered, black bar above everything, is fully stretched along your video, as shown here:


This says to the render setting, that we only want THIS much rendered.
Now onto the rendering, Press the button, in the middle under 'View' and 'Insert'
And it should open something, which looks like this:
Scroll down, and favorite the two that I did, 1080p is best quality, but 720p is regular.

to favorite something you press the star so that it turns yellow, like mine shows. Now thats done, you can tick the box that says ' Show favorites only ' And rename your clip, mine is just a tutorial on setting it up, so mine is named Sony vegas setup tutorial.

Now, the clip should be ready so press which one you are intending to render in ( 720p or 1080p ) And Press the render button.
Rendering may take some time, depending on your computer specs and how long the video is.
While rendering, a bar like this:

will be shown, and when finished, the boxes 'Open' and 'Open Folder' will be shown. And, as mine was chosen to go to my Documents:

I will press 'Open Folder' and it will take me to this:

Watch your clip first, to make sure it's the clip you intend to upload to youtube.

How to upload to Youtube:

Now, go on to Youtube. ( Https://Www.YouTube.Com/ ) and press ' Upload ' Which is next to your channel name, in the top right corner.

Now you should be at a screen that looks like this:

So you can either click it, and navigate to your folder, or just drag and drop the video clip in. In this tutorial, I will be dragging and dropping, both do the same thing.
Now, a screen will come up, and you can fill it out like this:

And, when everything is how you want it to be; press publish. Although, at the start it will still be processing, so give it a little bit of time ( Around 30 miniutes ) To Process, then you will be able to watch it in what ever you rendered it in ( 1080p or 720p )

Tips And Tricks for Vegas:

Highlight your clip, then on your keyboard press CTRL + SHIFT + U or just U to split sound and audio.
Press 'S' At the part of clip that you want to split.
To make the video not have side bars, right click your clip, go to properties and untick ' Maintain aspect ratio' and press Disable resample. [ Like this: http://i.imgur.com/2w45dnu.png <-- NEEDED.
To slow motion a clip, hold control and drag it to make the clip bigger, you can scroll in to make it so that you can see more of the clip, to make it easier for editing, do the opposite ( make it smaller ) for Fast Motion.
Sometimes in the program, instead of hitting S to split, you press D and it makes the mouse change weird, just hit it a few more times untill the mouse is regular again. <-- This is bound to come in handy, atleast one day.
You can convert any youtube video to a mp3 file format, here: http://www.listentoyoutube.com/ then just drag and drop this into your clip like you did the video [ Useful with music].
