Robert,

Check out my settings below. I'm using Adobe Premiere CS3 (PC) and I'm sure the basic settings can be applied to almost any NLEs.

1. Shoot your video at 720 or 1080.
2. Capture in HD (of course, don't downcovert to SD)
3. Edit in HD
4. Export to 1280x720, H.264 codec(a), 5Mbps, compressed audio(b).

Notes: (a) use QuickTime or MainConcept's H.264, (b) Apple Lossless, AAC, or MP3 works.

See the video: YouTube - Export HD Quality 1280x720 Widescreen Settings for YouTube HD

Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 Export Settings
(Use (Adobe Media Encoder" not "Export Movie")

Format: QuickTime
Range: ~
Preset: YouTube HD (this is the name of MY preset)

Frame Width [pixels]: 1,280
Frame Height [pixes]: 720
