This should be an action of last resort. Youtube is by far the largest video hosting site on the net, and I've rarely seen problems of the sort shown in this case. This is most likely the result of some undesirable encoding parameters in the video sent to YT, most likely the scheme of I/B/P frames used.

Mulvya, where are these settings (I/B/P) done?

I tried to render after settings all video clips with the "reduce interlace flicker" and the disable resample, as suggested, but the result video was bad, and the sound is missing before the third minute:

I also just tried to get the good looking mp4 local file and converting it using formatfactory, but after uploading to youtube the result is still really bad:

<p>this has been a painful drama for days, trying to get a nice video on youtube for my girlfriend. It looks great on the mpg file sony vegas generates, but after uploading to youtube it look more than crap.</p>

<p>The original videos were shot with the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FS7 which uses quicktime mov format. The settings of these files are shown below, as seen in the detail tab of the properties of the video:</p>

Looks like compression artifacts. Try rendering from Vegas to uncompressed AVI in native resolution i.e. 848x480 @ 24 fps. Then convert in SUPER to mp4  at a bitrate of about 2500 kbps; keep the native resolution and frame rate. Note that your source footage isn't HD, so it will look blurred if upscaled.

What happens if you "disable resample" in the clip properties before rendering. Any better?

I found this question whilst searching on Google for a solution to my problem. I worked a way to work around this problem [here](http://avp.stackexchange.com/a/4279/636) which may be relevant to your problem.
