YouTube Help!

I've noticed that when I upload my videos to YouTube, there's always all this black space on either side of the video when you watch it on there.
Am I not making it the right size or something? Does anyone know how to fix this so that my video will actually take up the entire video box...?

Hey, I just watched your latest upload and it looks to me like you don't have the right aspect ratio. So I was wonder what it was you used?

I was just using whatever the default was in Vegas Movie Studio.
Just checked and it's 0.9091 (NTSC DV)

What would be the best one for me to use, then???

Well let me ask is this a project you had to render then put it Sony Vegas and re-render the video?

Um.... I did the entire project in Vegas and saved it as an AVI from there.

There's a drop down list for the aspect ratio. I figured widescreen would be the best to go with, right?
There's an NTSC DV widescreen and a PAL DV widescreen...
I'm not exactly familiar with this sort of thing yet, sorry... ^^;

Hmm okay I figured it out, you need to choose one of the 720 or 1080 ones. I would say try HDV 720-24p intermediate and see how that one works.
