Uploading Videos to YouTube

To upload your video to YouTube, do this:

Note: if the size/length of the your video exceeds the maximum allowed, CyberLink ColorDirector will separate the video into smaller/shorter videos, upload these videos, and then create a playlist for you on YouTube.

1.Specify the Output folder, or the location where the produced video file that will be uploaded is saved. Click if you want to select another output folder or change the name of the produced file.
2.Click the YouTube Videos button.
3.Select the desired quality of your video from the Profile type drop-down. The quality you select will result in the corresponding quality option being available after the video is fully processed on YouTube.

Note: the quality option available on YouTube is also dependent on the original captured video quality and the bandwidth of the user who is watching the video.

4.Enter a Title and Description for your video in the fields provided. The text you enter is included on YouTube once uploaded. Also select one of the Video categories and enter in some keyword Tags that users can search for to find your video.
5.Set whether you want the video to be Public or Private once it is uploaded to YouTube.

Note: sign in to DirectorZone and then select Share in CyberLink DirectorZone Video Gallery if you want to show others how you adjusted the clips in your video production. When selected, an animated version of your project's storyboard displays, along with your uploaded video, on DirectorZone.

6.Configure the production options as required. See Configuring Production Options for more information.
7.Click Start to begin.
8.Click Authorize and then grant CyberLink ColorDirector permission to upload videos to your YouTube account by following the steps in the YouTube Authorization windows.
9.CyberLink ColorDirector proceeds to produce and upload the video file. Click Close when done to return to the program.

Configuring Production Options

Before you begin producing, you can select the following production options:

Hardware video encoding: this option is only enabled if your computer supports hardware acceleration (an AMD graphics card that supports AMD Accelerated Parallel Processing), and you are outputting in a file format that supports it.
Enable preview during production: select this option to preview your movie during production. Selecting this option will increase the time required to produce your file.
