Bitrate for YouTube

Posted By Patrick On 02/03/2009 @ 01:38 pm In Uncategorized | No Comments

It seems that the handling of streamed media from YouTube is handled by the Host machines processor and not the server machines hardware. This means it will be best to optimise for an average (1-2 Year Old) processor spec and encode SD at around 450kbits/sec and HD around 1350 kbits/sec (at 1280 x 720).
Hope this helps.
