Video Specifications – How can we help?

As you upload content to the Video Actions section of your event, please keep in mind the following recommendations for the best quality.

Video Upload/Sizes

Video Dimension: 1280x720p ideal size

Video Size: You can upload videos of any size however the larger the video, the longer it will take to upload. We now re-encode every video uploaded to these specs to ensure all videos are streamed to events most efficiently. The video will automatically optimize once it is loaded but this process may take double the video run time.

File Type: The video files will need to be saved as MP4. More specifically, please make sure your videos are encoded using the h.264 codec. We have seen events uploading h.265 encoded videos lately and this codec is not supported by Chrome, Firfeox or IE browsers.

Encoder: x264
Rate Control: CBR
Bitrate: 2000kbs
Keyframe Interval: 2
CPU Usage Preset: very fast
Profile: (none)
Tune: zerolatency
x264 Options: b-pyramid=0 b-frame=0
Base Resolution: 1280x720
