I think YouTube hates WMV, so I'm uploading a 4-second clip that is a 16MB uncompressed AVI (Windows Movie Maker has too many limitations)
From Youtube:
"
What video file formats can I upload?
YouTube accepts video files from most digital cameras and camcorders, and cell phones in the .AVI, .MOV, and .MPG file formats.
What's the best format to upload for high quality?
We recommend the MPEG4 (Divx, Xvid) format at 320x240 resolution with MP3 audio. Resizing your video to these specifications before uploading will help your clips look better on YouTube."
XviD + LAME + Virtualdub.
