Not a bad tutorial, but some things should be added. Some people might want Full HD therefore they should use 1920x1080 in-game and when rending in sony vegas, when converting to x264 use .mkv as an output instead of .mp4, .mkv handles x264 better and youtube struggles more on fucking your video quality. Secondly, you don't really tell what bitrate is used and whenever it does 2-pass converting or not, it uses some some default settings which is not good,you should select the settings yourself as sometimes if the bitrate is too big your filesize will be too big which is unnessary and if the bitrate is too small the quality will look worse in comprasion to the input file.
I might also suggest to use program called Mediacoder instead of MeGUI. Mediacoder is more powerful and converts much faster.

True, but not many have resolution more than 1920x1080 therefore making avidemoing pain.

you have zero clue what youre on about do you? first mkv is mearly mp4 for subs and diffrent sound tracks within the actual file. They handle x264 EXACTLY the same. Regarding the bitrate a simple rule is 8000 for 50fps and 4000-6000 for 30fps. The profile it self is hard to make and requires some general knowledge or alot of time to do trial and error. I sugeest getting a hold of mazarini's or any other public profile which is good. If anyone is intrested i can upload some profiles.

Ch4vioN I do know what I'm talking about, I've been doing encodings for a lot of animes, tv shows, movies etc. in the past, I have a lot of experience when it comes to this. No, MKV is not just mearly a MP4 that can handle many audiotracks and subs, MKV is far better than any video format, it can handle almost any video and audio codec where MP4 can handle very limited choice of codecs. MKV is the best video format out there and that is a fact, it has a lot more advantages than mp4 or any other video format, the only disadvantage when it comes to MKV is that it's unsuported by most playback devices. Well ye an exact same conversation on x264 codec and format as MKV and MP4 the outcome quality would be the same. However when it comes to youtube MKV will look better, well at least it used to look better. I did a lot of tests in the past and MKV did look better, youtube seemed to struggle with it but since the *past* youtube changed their player and the way they convert many times so can't tell for sure how it's now but still, use MKV as it's generally a better video format.

Full HD sucks.. it lags and takes ages. Hardly any difference in quality either.
