I tried getting one of them to explain codecs to me once and I thought my head was going to explode from information overload. Truth be told, the workaround I've suggested above isn't necessarily the best way to do it - I just personally think it's the easiest. The best way seems to be to suck in the content at the highest possible quality - in this case using the H.264 codec - then edit things and finally export to the final format before uploading. For high quality stuff I think that's definitely the way to go - especially when you're using content that's been planned, scripted and shot to good cameras. However in my case I'll most likely be doing talking head shots straight to camera. So adjusting the recording quality in the QuickTime preferences is the quickest and least painful option.

I think it is a conspiracy. Mpeg-4/DivX/Xvid is good enough for me - everyone should just use that from now on because I say so. (If you don't like it then buy a smaller television like mine and you won't notice a thing) Why is video so freaking complicated? I think it is a conspiracy.
