Oh my god, Stan...
One of my favorite Karen Walker moments, so I captured it for you.
(I wonder why my videos on YouTube often look very distorted (like solarization) in the first couple of seconds. I don't see it with others' videos.)

One of my favorite lines from that show was when Karen was really sad about something and Will's line to her was.."Awww. Do you need a shoulder to drink on?"
I have one friend who constantly uses that line whenevere I go to her with a problem. I'd be annoyed but she always has both drink and a shoulder at the ready for my use.

You cut from the middle of a GOP. So there's no I-frame to draw the complete picture when your program starts.
I have never submitted anything to YouTube and don't know much about its operation, but I am wondering why it doesn't sense the above issue and discard the few seconds of incomplete frames until the first complete I-frame in the clip?
Could it be that after cutting (from the middle of a GOP) you somehow convert/process your MPEG stream, losing the original frame data and rendering the few secs of incomplete frames into a new innocent looking full GOP?
Could be. I use QT Player to edit the video. But if I just save it after cutting out bits, the file does not get smaller, for some reason. So I Export into a new MPEG file.

You need to cut from a GOP boundary.
