PS4 USB Video Export vs. Facebook Video Export Shows Double The Size And Quality

GearNuke: "The newest PS4 firmware update allows export of videos to USB, which results in some great quality videos ready to be uploaded to YouTube. Considering the fact that originally we were stuck with simply uploading to Facebook, this is a great feature to be had, and makes for a good alternative to a capture card."

An example of a USB video export that I did earlier. Though you need to take Youtube's compression into account...

TitanUp3648d ago

not a bad video, im guessing we will be seeing a lot more ps4 videos all over youtube which is pretty cool.

hopefully some peeps make a few music videos i love those.

tigertron3648d ago

Yeah I'm really pleased that we can now upload game videos to Youtube.

I never had a capture card or anything so being able to just copy files to USB and to simply plug in my PC and upload to Youtube is great. It's so easy to do.

levian3648d ago

If we can save the video to a USB drive, does that mean we can use an external hard drive as well? I have a nice 2TB one sitting around unused...

Mega243648d ago

It clearly got improved, and the edit tools are amazing, but need more transitions and fx tools. It is a great App though. 8/10 for me, and as a Vega user it was really easy to understand, can't say for un-experienced others though.

Ninjatogo3648d ago

The learning curve isn't that steep. There are tons of controls on screen but I think they did a great job simplifying the interface while keeping depth. I haven't done video editing in years, so I was quite impressed when I was able to pick it up and run through all the features/effects in about 30 min.

Father__Merrin3648d ago

i didnt find it easy to use TBH il spend some more time with it.

also i noticed the game video saves seem smoother than before?

Moe-Gunz3648d ago

I agree. I've been showing my test to everyone and they really like it. My main issue is the lack of fading for audio. I'm a Adobe Premiere, Vegas, Final Cut Pro, and Avid user so it was simple to me.

@Moe-Gunz

If I never have to use an Avid editing suite again I can die happy. The one we had in college was from the triassic period. There was always a rush to get the macs with Final Cut or one with an Adobe Suite.

The Share Factory is very handy, I found it easy to use myself but that woudl come with years of professional editing experience. Although since there's now the ability to export to USB I'll probably do most my editing on PC. After Effects the poop outta my clips :D

I do agree, an audio fade is definitely needed. You can do a hard cut that is immediately followed by one of those *BA DING! PRRRAY STASHUUN!* graphics so it doesnt seem to jarring when the music just stops.

Theres an option to change the volume, so all they need to do is add the ability to insert keyframes on the audio so you can have it transition between numerous values. Doubt it would be too hard of an addition and no doubt they will be updating it a tonne over the next few years.

We REALLY need a new video sharing site like YouTube but with Gamersyde's quality and 60fps videos.

Gazondaily3648d ago

Yeah definitely. Youtube just doesn't cut it anymore.

Shadonic3648d ago

looks pretty good, might start uploading to youtube again now.

Neixus3648d ago

whoah, nice RPG shot at the start =D

Ace Killa 083648d ago (Edited 3648d ago )

He literally "took a shot" with that clip :P lol epic shot brother. It is much more clearer.

I can't see a huge difference. If anything a bit sharper on yours compared to mine - https://www.facebook.com/ph...

Mind you I uploaded straight from PS4 back at launch day.

**Edit**
NVM i finally was able to do a good side by side comparison and your capture much more clear and brighter

Gazondaily3648d ago

Nice vid (your own music?)

Quality is MILES better

okmrman3648d ago

That's the music that came with the sharefactory

koolaid2513647d ago

Nice I have to try and make a video with ShareFactory.

christian hour3647d ago (Edited 3647d ago )

The music timed up so well with that helicopter rocket shot at the start! Awesome clips in there @okmrman

Looking forward to having a bit more music to use in sharefactory hopefully over the next few months. Does anybody know waht the policy is in using your own music?

I write/record some stuff myself, but I'm curious as to whether you can use stuff in the public domain on youtube/facebook as well? Or would it get flagged? I would totally just stick on some ol' timey ragtune songs from the public domain to juxtapose all the clips of explosions :D

AutoCad3648d ago

why cant you just upload it straight to youtube.?

SaffronCurse3648d ago

For now you can export it to a USB key and upload it through there.

porkChop3648d ago

I think that will come when we finally get a native YouTube app for PS4.

NovusTerminus3648d ago

Can I export to am external HDD? Or does it have to be a thumb drive?

Goro3648d ago

I can now transfer to USB, kind of takes away the point of having a HD PVR, which is a good thing :)

Fallout 4 is now available on next-gen consoles, but PS Plus users might be left disappointed

Fallout 4 is now available on next-gen consoles, offering 60fps gameplay and 4K resolution. But it's bad news if you claimed the game on PS Plus.

Probably won't happen for PS+ since Sony makes a clear distinction between a PS4 game and a PS5 game, unlike PC and Xbox where it is not a specific device game (It's now always an Xbox game).

So to make the PS5 game of fallout 4 available. Bethesda would need to renegotiate the complete deal with Sony.
hence why there's often only the PS4 version of the game available on PS+.

Let's hope Bethesda and Sony can arrive to term quickly.

P_Bomb2h ago

In that same link, they talked to further support who said PS+ owners aren’t eligible. What a load of BS! The upgrade worked just fine for FF7R. I was looking forward to this. 😞

ChasterMies24m ago

PS5 upgrades for PS4 games on PS+ are hit and miss. The reason is usually that publisher doesn’t want to hand out free upgrades. Sometimes they offer the upgrade upfront, sometimes they are bullied into it, and sometimes they offer it later in a special edition that Sony buys for PS+. It looks here like Bethesda’s intent was to raise the profile of Fallout 4 (and sell some DLC) so I expect we will see an update for PS+ versions soon.

Mr Logic1m ago

Bethesda themselves acknowledged that Plus users are eligible. There is just some kind of glitch and they are working to fix it.

CobraKai4h ago

I think a hard copy should be relatively cheap at this point.

ocelot071h ago

Roughly a fiver for disc. It's also £3.99 on PSN right now for both PS4 and ps5 version.

P_Bomb1h ago

North America sale just ended. The timing for me absolutely blows.

Hofstaderman44m ago(Edited 44m ago)

So if I insert my ps4 disc I should get the upgrade?

anast23m ago

This article is funny. They tell you that $35 is a good deal for this game...We know whose side they are on.
