Lately I have been trying to upload videos to you tube and I continue to get a lot of artifacts on my screen when the video plays. Though it is perfect for me on my computer or Vimeo. I am using h.264 compression and have all the other settings the same as what vimeo requires. Anyone have an idea why Youtube would be giving me problems?
Youtube Compression.

I up the brightness of footage because YouTube compression makes footage look darker. I export at 640 X 480, although YouTube now has HD so maybe someone else can talk about HD on YouTube. I save the audio portion in MP3 -- not wave.
Bitrate
In after effects I am using VBR 1 pass.
Target is 4 Mbps
Max is 5 Mbps

My HD workflow for upload to youtube
I render from premiere or AE to quicktime (photo jpeg or png sequence)
I use handbrake to create a h264 file
handbrake settings:
Video:
Codex h264
average bitrate 10,000 kbps
2 pass encoding
audio
AAC encoding
Stereo mixdown
Bitrate 320KPS

How is this different then using AE or Premiere to compress the file to h.264? Why the extra step?
Here is an example of the problems I am having with youtube.

I was reading that both YT and Dailymotion are fully tested and run best at. 720 x 1280 at 25 fps. So far, it works for me.
