    Does the same thing occur if you export the movie to the camera roll first and then upload using Facebook to upload and post? (vs. sharing directly from iMovie)

    It sounds like it's Facebook re-encoding the video or something on their end. If that's the case, I'm not sure what else can be done since you already have the HD uploads toggled on in both the app and on FB.  Perhaps try sending the rendered movie from your camera roll to a computer and upload from there?  Long way to go, but might give different results.

     

    Sorry, I haven't uploaded anything to FB in a while so I'm not entirely sure if my videos have the same problem.
