Answer 3

If you mean smaller as in length, you'll have to edit your video file on a video editing software such as Windows Movie Maker, Adobe Premiere Pro, etc.  Save it as a new file and upload to Youtube.

If you mean smaller as in file size, then when you save choose lower resolutions (i.e. 320x240).  Bear in mind that the length of the video is also a factor in your final file size.  File format will also influence your file size.  Flash format (.swf) is becoming standard because it is more compact and allows for higher resolutions.  Adobe Premiere Pro or Marcromedia Flash are but a few of the many video editing tools that allow you to save in this format.  Mpeg4 is another compact file format.  Windows Movie Maker allows you to save in .wmv only, not as efficient in compressing video files.

Here is what Youtube recommands:

YouTube can accept almost any video format for upload, but for most users we have found the following settings give the best results.

Video Format: MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid)

Resolution: 640x480 pixels

Audio Format: MP3

Frames per second: 30

Maximum length: 10 minutes (we recommend 2-3 minutes)

Maximum file size: 1 GB

Answer 5

compress it with moviemaker..

Using windows movie maker -- you have to save it into the proper file format, that is "wmv" file (use the "save movie file" on the menu at the top left) before upload..

The WMV file will be smaller in size but still quite good quality.. so uploading it will be faster.

--for best editing....

use windows movie maker (included in your windows machine)... it can help you make beautiful slideshow or video clip(e.g. mixing your songs with pictures/video/etc).... then save it as video file such as wmv file format... finally upload.

or .. Just get those clips you want , save & convert them, and then mix/match with pix/sound/etc using windows movie maker to create new masterpieces....

this will help you.... Use 'zillatube'. This is the easiest (and also the fastest) way.

Zillatube produces mpg/mp3 formats from youtube that are compatible with windows movie maker(or media player), and more.

It is very easy to download and convert videos. Then edit those converted mp3/mpg videos with windows movie maker... save your file as wmv and then upload.

It works very well....just google search for "zillatube"
