There are a few things to remember for optimizing the quality of the videos uploaded to your community.
To see the best performance and quality possible, use the following list as your guideline for recording and uploading videos.
- Upload the original video. Converting the video to different formats can degrade the quality.
- Remember that the higher the video quality, the better. Converting or recording in a lower format degrades the video quality.
- Sound quality may be poor if the frequency is below 40kHz.
- The higher the data transfer rate for your network connection (kbps or mbps), the faster the video upload will be.
- Upload webinars in 4:3 format.
- You can upload videos in 4:3 or 16:9 (standard or widescreen) format.
- Limit video size to 1GB. Although video size is unlimited, you may experience
timeouts and inconsistent performance for videos >1GB due to Internet, network or
browser limitations.
- Web cam video capture has limited usage in certain communities. Check with your Jive
administrator to see if you can capture video in your community using a web
cam.
