Settng 3D option on Youtube

I believe it's a problem with Youtube. Mine often do the same even using different 3D settings.

I am not having any problems like you describe. When you experience problems on your YT channel do you check on others to see if they are having the same issue? We are talking about already established uploads, aren't we? Feel free to compare your 3D uploads to mine.

Again, when I render my YT 3D videos in Vegas I do a "render as" to a wmv file that is set in the project settings to SBS half and Best quality. I set the bit rate to the "Internet / Lan and 8M which is one of the default settings.

There is also an "upload to You Tube" in Vegas but I have never used it. I generally do the rendering and then log into my channel and use the YT upload button, find my wmv file and begin.

It can make a difference whether you launch your youtube viewer from a general webpage (e.g. from a page of this forum) or from a youtube webpage. I find a general webpage will sometimes not display 3D options in the embedded viewer.

Jeff- I think I understand what you are saying. I find the embedded code for the forum display never shows the 3D options until you begin playing the video. Then it shows up, at least for me on Firefox.

Normally, when working with my own channel, I use a bookmark link to it in a new browser tab. Here the 3D selections always show up.

Don, sometimes the options don't show up for me even after starting the playback of a youtube video that normally does provide 3D options.
Hi. You seem to be talking about a file that was successfully uploaded with 3D set, but that sometimes plays back successfully in the youtube player with 3D options showing, and sometimes not.

I'd like to mention that there's a more basic thing that some readers might not be aware of and that is the need to set the "already is 3D" option while you are still uploading, i.e. set it at the beginning of the upload, rather than trying to add that status after the upload has completed. If you try to add later, the status may be grayed out, or if you can set it, it will not stay set.

Interesting, and a good point. I always set mine to already 3D while it is uploading. Never tried it after the fact.

I have had problems with the tags I set during the upload not sticking for the channel after the video completes processing, here I often need to add them again when the video has completed the processing. Sort of the opposite problems.

No problem. Shows up as soon as I click on it.

Threed,

• With Firefox, 3D options appeared after clicking play.
• With IE9, no 3D options appeared at all using the embedded player on the forum page. Needed to click on the "Play in YouTube" link before 3D options would appear.

So this appears to be a browser specific issue.

Whilst I am baring my soul, I'll confess that my version of IE9 on my 64-bit Windows 7 pc often reports on sites as not being the latest version of Internet Explorer; but if I try to update, the report comes back that I do have the latest version...
