you have two options.

I avoid rendering with WMV from sony vegas, primarily because the encoder it uses is very slow and inefficient. It renders 5 frames, then encodes, then waits, then repeats. there's a lot of idle time. Personally, i use either of the two options. In terms of uploading to youtube you have two options - or rather, these are the two options i'm familiar with.

the MP4 option. I think the option is "MainConcept AVC/AAC MP4".. I'm not sat in front of my home PC to check. Select one of the internet profiles and customise as required. If you're rendering @ 720p you should be fine to use 10MBPS, maybe if you have a lot of UI text, etc you might want to up it to 15MBPS.

The other option is AVI, and have x264 installed. The same bit rates are fine. You'll get similar file sizes (obviously), but the quality will be a little clearer, less noise. Rendering is a little slower.

The MP4 option is a little freaky with its requirements. For example, it will render at 29.9 FPS in HD, but not at 30. So, if your footage is 30, don't use this. AVI / x264 will render at 30 fine.

hope that helps, if not ping a response and i can help you more specifically when i'm sat in front of my home pc.
