For YouTube, visual quality usually matters more than reaching the smallest file. Longer videos need a larger size budget.
Keep 1080p when detail matters; use 720p only when upload size or speed is the priority
Use MP4/H.264 with AAC and avoid an unnecessarily tiny target. Preview the result at full screen before uploading.
Retry with H.264, lower the resolution or target size, trim unnecessary footage, close other tabs and start again from the original. Recheck the platform's current upload screen before sending.
