No one else is upset that you cant upload 720p videos to youtube over WIFI?

If I am missing something let me know.

This is a MAJOR issue.

The last thing that is... is a MAJOR issue. A "major" issue is the yellowing screens people are receiving, bad call reception, or even no MMS. This is not a major issue. It's a feature that you think should be fixed/added. ;)
 
You can export to your Camera Roll in HD in iMovie, but you can't upload. That still has to be done from the Camera Roll or from your PC.

So, there is no way to upload at 720p to YouTube (from the iPhone 4) as far as I can tell. Hopefully someone will prove me wrong.
 
The iMovie app does NOT let you upload HD video, it just saves it to your camera roll. I used pixelpipe to upload full quality to YouTube.

Note the 720p option. Came directly from my phone, so it is possible with third party apps.

What is pixelpipe? I can't seem to find this in the appstore, and searching just pulls up how the app was pulled from the AppStore in March? I REALLY need to be able to upload 720p over 3G this weekend.

Thanks!

i wonder, did it compress the file prior/during transfer? quality still doesn't look as good. i'll be checking this app out myself. thanks for the info.
 
The videos uploaded via wifi looks like crap on youtube.

Yes it is compressed by the iphone prior to uploading I believe.

Any fix would be helpful.
