![]() You're going to have to go there anyway to setup all the different options so you might as well use YouTube's preferred way to upload videos. That gives you all of the different options. Test if out and then use the YouTube interface to upload. Instead you should always export as a file and exactly the quality that you want. Now I don't recommend doing this nor do I recommend using any export to YouTube function in another app, like iMovie. You have to log into your Goggle Account to do that, of course. You can upload directly to YouTube from QuickTime Player. You could see a bunch of different ways basic to Export and then share it in an app. There's another export option under Share. If you have a large file to export you can watch its progress here. Under Window you have Show Export Progress which will bring up a little window here. You can also choose Audio Only to export just the audio track. But it is useful if, say, you have a 4K video and you want to export it as a smaller, say, 720p video. You get to choose basically between H264 for a standard video and a newer format, HEVC, which will be smaller files and you can then use it on your Mac but older computers and things that don't have HEVC yet won't be able to play it. So you can use one of these different options here but you really don't get to choose much. Otherwise only as great as the quality is right now. If the video is 4K or greater you can export as 4K. So go to Export As and you only have a few options. Now when you have a video open you can use QuickTime Player to export it in a different format. This is useful if you're taking photos for stop-motion animation or if you've created an animation and exported it from a Graphics App as a series of images you can use QuickTime Player to stitch that together as a video. Then you get a video made out of all the different images. Choose Media and it will give you some options here. So you can go to a folder full of images, select All of the images, or actually just select the folder. Another thing to do is open an image sequence. So if you happen to know the location on the internet of the video you can open it directly in QuickTime Player instead of using a web browser. You can, of course, go to File, Open File and open a video file that way. So you can record something and then go through and edit parts of it out, trim it, and such. You can use those editing tools for audio as well as for video. In a minute here I'm going to talk about editing tools. You can use this new audio recording and iMovie, Keynote, in any kind of project that takes audio files. So just go to File, New Audio Recording and now you can choose microphone and quality and just make a quick audio recording. Now you can also use QuickTime Player to record a new audio file. You can choose the microphone and the quality and just record a quick video right into QuickTime Player and save it as a file. But the other option here, New Movie Recording will actually use a camera attached to your Mac, like the webcam built into your MacBook, and you can choose the camera. But that just takes you to the default screen recording options. Now you can create new videos in QuickTime Player as well. I've got AirPlay and I can just use QuickTime Player as a way to airplay a video from my Mac to an Apple TV. Notice here in this audio file I have the AirPlay icon and I can actually send the audio to another device like an Apple TV. You'll be able to use just about all the other tools I'm going to talk about here with audio as well as video. Then you can actually playback audio files, either music, spoken audio or whatever you've got, in QuickTime Player. But if I Control click on it and choose Open With I can choose QuickTime Player or of course I can just drag it onto the icon in the Applications Folder or in the Dock if you have QuickTime Player there. If I double-click on it it's going to open up the Default App, which is the Music App. But QuickTime Player can do a lot more than just play videos. So you may know QuickTime Player as the default app that plays when you double-click on a video file in the Finder. Join us and get exclusive content and course discounts.
