So I recorded a quick video today, and uploaded it to the OneDrive (mostly because I dont know how to upload to youtube from the phone) and when I went to review it, it was massively pixelated.

(tried inserting video and then got a message I was denied)

You can see there how soft and fuzzy it is...and look at the brick wall in the beginning, it looks like something off my kids' minecraft game.

you can upload the videos with this app directly to your youtube account
Nokia Video Upload | Windows Phone Apps+Games Store (United States)

and as far as the one drive video...go to settings --> backup --> photos
and see the quality of the video it's uploading :) and is the original video fuzzy?

I don't know how thats happening but I would recommend recording a video and then retrieving it through your computer through USB. Perhaps the video is being compressed when you upload it?

There is heavy compression when auto uploading to one drive when not set to HIGH in settings. It is there purely as a backup. For best quality use a USB lead and PC.

Thanks guys! Will play around with it after work today and see what happens

I was searching about this cause of a video I saved to skydrive only to find poor quality. The setting mentioned is for auto upload. What if I don't want to auto upload and only upload the videos I want to? I'm unable to choose high quality though the phone?

I don't know about you, but I'm running WP8.1 and under the auto-upload options for video on OneDrive I have "Don't upload" and "Best Quality (needs a WiFi connection)". Haven't tried uploading a video onto OneDrive yet but my gut tells me this latter option wasn't there in 8.0, and if anything should mean that videos get uploaded 'as is' like images under the same setting for photos
