I would rather AME encode whatever frame rate I give it, rather than conform everything to the same frame rate. However, one setting I DON’T like is that AME defaults to a specific frame rate. This provides a nice balance between a small file size which uploads reasonably quickly with a bit rate high enough so that when YouTube recompresses the file, the image quality will still look good. Personally, I’ve standardized on 720p for everything I upload to YouTube. Once the setting is created, the process of adding it to a Watch Folder is exactly the same.

We’ll create a Watch Folder that continuously checks that folder for new files. In this case, I created a folder called “ Drop Files for YouTube.” (You can name your Watch Folders anything you want personally, I opt for obvious.) Even better, they allow us to create multiple versions of the same master file, automatically.īefore creating a Watch Folder, you need to create the folder you want AME to watch.

So, first interaction here, so if more is needed, or if I am doing something wrong, I am open to suggestions or guidance with forum ettiquette.
