    As a flash memory camcorder, that AipTek compresses the video a LOT to begin with. Then, as you decompress and recompress the video data files you are losing more clarity and definition.

    Video data compression = discarded video data = reduced video quality

    To get clear video, you need to start with the highest available quality and not compress or keep the amount of compression to a minimum. In your case the .mov your camcorder creates are supposed to be high definition. When you convert to .avi or .wmv, you need to keep them in the highest available quality the converter application lets you do. Then edit. When you finish editing the project in MovieMaker, make every effort to keep the compression to a minimum. Since YouTube's limitation is a single file can be ten minutes or 1 gig, in order to keep the video quality up, take advantage of the 1 gig.

    Video data files take a lot of space on your computer - the tendency is to compress the data file so they use less space - but when you compress, you lose video quality.

    What I have found is using h.264 video data type into a .mov or .avi file type works very well. Vimeo.com has a good set of instructions on optimum video quality and various file types. I use the same files I upload to Vimeo.com's high definition area (720p) that I upload to YouTube - My YouTube uploads have a "View in High Quality" link on the lower right of the YouTube video window.
