To get in curt I've been having a lot of issues when uploading my gameplay videos to youtube. The quality of the videos after I render is great only once I upload them they look HORRIBLE at 1080p. HERE is a side-by-side comparing.
I have tried to expect up vidoes and forum posts that explain the all-time render settings to use in Adobe Premier Pro CS6 and I've narrowed information technology down to the majority of content creators using H.264 with THESE settings.
The video there finished at 16.5 GBs. Equally far every bit I'k aware youtube can handle over 100 GB videos and can take 4k resolution videos so I can't seem to see why my videos would lose quailty when I am even using settings from other content creators when rendering!

If y'all rescale outside of premiere from a lossy format into another lossy format, you volition endure an extra circular of quality loss, so you probably want to have premiere do the scaling. If you take premiere consign into a lossless format, though, yous can avoid that.
One thing I forgot to mention is that to get youtube to process your video into 1440p/4k streams, your video doesn't quite demand to exist at those resolutions. The threshold is actually at some intermediate resolution (and so for example the ane for 1440p is somewhere between 1080p and 1440p). I don't know what the thresholds are off the top of my caput, merely you can wait it upward. Not going all the mode up to 1440p will save you lot some file size besides as some render/encode time.
Someone suggested I try 2k but information technology adds an actress 8 hours to my return time...
Stepping from 1080p to 2k (2048x1080) should non blow upwardly your render time like that - information technology's just half-dozen% larger. Are yous sure you didn't alter some other setting(south) also?

Well, that's pretty bad quality, even for youtube. I must ask, are you sure that when you took that screenshot, you were really viewing the 1080p stream? It looks almost similar a 360p stream to me.
That beingness said, yous should proceed in mind a few things:
One time uploaded to youtube, your videos volition never look as good as the source. This is because youtube transcodes your videos into relatively low-bitrate streams. So you volition inevitably suffer quality loss, no matter what you do.
Because of the above, it is way overkill to encode your 1080p videos at 160 Mbps. All yous get is a actually large file size then youtube butchers the quality anyhow when information technology does the transcode. Unless file size and upload bandwidth is absolutely of no business organization to you, your bitrate target should be the lowest possible for visual transparency (for 1080p30 a good bet is going to be 25-35 Mbps for the premiere h.264 encoder, depending on how visually complex your videos are). If yous practice this, 99/100 people will not exist able to tell the difference betwixt a youtube stream transcoded from that and one transcoded from a lossless source.
Ever since youtube switched to vp9, information technology does this weird thing where when you initially upload a video, it will first transcode your video into h.264 and make that version bachelor (the video will be flagged as 100% processed, available for viewing, and it will even show the Hd tag once youtube finishes encoding the 720p+ streams). Some time after this, youtube will finish transcoding your video into the higher-quality vp9 codec, and once this happens, you lot will find a significant increase in video quality. Youtube doesn't tell you when the vp9 encode finishes and it switches over from h.264; it happens automatically and the only way you lot tin tell is by opening the "Stats for nerds" popular-upwardly box in the video player. So if you discover your videos are of especially bad quality afterward they've been uploaded, this might exist why.

Thank you for the info! I'g going to attempt what you've suggested and see how my new video turns outs. I'll edit this post with results in a few hours.

Subsequently the upload completed I left it for 4 hours to make sure it was Really finished processing. THIS is how information technology turned out compared to source. It'southward still very pixelly while the screen moves.

I agree it still looks pretty bad. Only if in that location'due south rapid motion going on in that frame it might explain it - all modern video codecs volition sacrifice per-frame image quality when at that place is rapid motion because when the video is playing normally it is much harder to notice the drop in quality.
Tin you link me to the video itself? That way I tin can run into for myself what the quality is like during normal playback and tell you if it'southward normal for youtube or if something else is going on.

Here you lot get. All my recent videos take this problem, while my older videos always turned out fine.

Yep, looks similar normal youtube pinch to me. Youtube'southward 1080p videos stream at a video bitrate of ii.5 Mbps (5 Mbps for 1080p60). That's really low, which makes for pretty bad epitome quality. If you want to see for yourself what kind of upshot a bitrate this low can take on your videos, try re-encoding them at 5 Mbps with h.264 (I'm going to be generous here and requite vp9 a compression ratio advantage of 50% over h.264) and and so meet what they await similar.
If you desire improve quality on youtube, though, here'southward a tip: rescale your videos to 1440p (or fifty-fifty 4K) before uploading to youtube. And so when your video is viewed in 1440p or 4k fashion (even if scaled down to fit on a 1080p monitor), it volition look much better. Information technology doesn't seem similar information technology should work, but it does because the bitrates for 1440p and 4k streams (10Mbps and ~20Mbps, respectively) are disproportionately higher than the bitrate for 1080p streams.

So... should I render at 1440 or rescale outside of premier pro? Someone suggested I endeavor 2k simply it adds an extra 8 hours to my render time...

If yous rescale outside of premiere from a lossy format into another lossy format, you will suffer an extra round of quality loss, and then yous probably want to have premiere practice the scaling. If y'all have premiere export into a lossless format, though, you can avoid that.

The threshold is actually at some intermediate resolution (then for instance the one for 1440p is somewhere between 1080p and 1440p). I don't know what the thresholds are off the height of my head, simply you can look it up. Not going all the way up to 1440p will save you lot some file size as well as some render/encode time.

Stepping from 1080p to 2k (2048x1080) should not blow upwards your return time like that - information technology'south just 6% larger. Are y'all certain you didn't modify another setting(s) besides?
