Question / Help Software to encode for faster youtube processing

[João Dias]

I dont know if this is the right forum to post this, but i am looking for a encoding tool.


A few days ago i whatched a video in youtube about setting up OBS for recording, this guy had a simple software to encode the videos before upload to youtube.

Unfortunatly i had to format my laptop, and lost all my downloads, now i cant remenber what software was, what video was etc.

Anyone use any type of software to do encoding?

What exactly do you mean? OBS already encodes the video.

No its not handbreak
The software is just for faster processing.
Before i used this software, youtube took a few minuts to upload and another few minuts to processing.
This software is to moove the index to the beggining of the video, so the processing only takes a few seconds.

That is the "web optimized" option in Handbrake, though obviously other software will support this function too. Perhaps you're thinking of https://github.com/danielgtaylor/qtfaststart which came up after a cursory Google search.

Given its function I'm doubtful that it has any effect on Youtube processing however.

I use handbreack very often, but this software that i am talking about is a standalone one and took nly abount 2 or 3 seconds to "optimize" the video.

It was very eficient and did not mess the video

So...not the second link I posted that does what you describe?

http://www.datagoround.com/lab/ looks like it would also do the same thing.

Sapiens, thanks very much, it is the secound link: mp4 FastStart.
Youtube or Chrome history search is not very reliable.
