How To: YouTube Formatting Tags
One of the frequent issues seen with online video is formatting problems in aspect ratio and display resolution. You see a lot of these problems appear on YouTube with video just not looking right. In some cases, widescreen 16:9 video is squished into a standard definition or 4:3 aspect ratio. Or you see 4:3 video stretched into a 16:9 aspect ratio. The standard practice of letterboxing transfers video shot in a widescreen aspect ratio to standard definition video format while preserving the film’s original aspect ratio. Pillarboxing (reversed letterboxing) adds vertical black bars on each side of the video when the player a 16:9 aspect ratio. Windowboxing occurs when the video appears centered in the video player surrounded by a black frame on all four sides of the image.
yt:stretch=16:9 (fixes anamorphic content by scaling to 16:9)
yt:stretch=4:3 (fixes 720×480 content that is the wrong aspect ratio by scaling to 4:3)
yt:quality=high (default to a high quality stream, depending on availability)

Robert Sandie of Viddler Talks Online Video Fundamentals
Robert Sandie is co-founder and president of Viddler, who basically lives 24/7 on the site. He says, “Online video is my passion. It’s easy to give in. Nothing more powerful then a mailing list and your own destination site.”
In this short video sandieman points out the flaws in online video.There’s a lot of focus on YouTube subscriptions when the focus should be personal branding. Distribution is a means to end and the end result is your brand. You are the brand. Don’t let any branded destination site be the only way you can distribute and connect with your audience.
He also posted the video on his blog and said, “I care deeply about online video and the part that is discerning is the reliance upon one video service to provide all viewership for larger brands. Listen and let me know what you think. If you want to talk further, please don’t hesitate to email me at: rsandie |at| viddler (dot) com.
