To maximize registrations and long-term value from your session, it’s important to capture the highest-quality recording of your presentation. Follow these guidelines to get the most out of your recording: #### **Ensure a strong internet connection** Everything starts with your internet connection. Any presenters sharing cameras or screens will need a strong internet connection do avoid drops in quality. [Click here](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/how-to-increase-your-connection-speed-and-prevent-packet-loss-1?hsLang=en) for tips for strong internet connections #### **Use the highest resolution possible on your device's camera ** Start by optimizing the resolution of your own camera. We recommend using a screen resolution of **1920x1080**,the maximum resolution of the webcast stream. Use the following resources to change the screen resolution of your [Mac](https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/change-your-displays-resolution-mchl86d72b76/mac#:~:text=display%20is%20connected.-,On%20your%20Mac%2C%20choose%20Apple%20menu%20%3E%20System%20Preferences%2C,click%20Displays%2C%20then%20click%20Display.&text=Press%20and%20hold%20the%20Option,option%20for%20the%20second%20display.) or [PC](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/change-your-screen-resolution-5effefe3-2eac-e306-0b5d-2073b765876b) device.  #### **2. Use the highest possible frame rate** **Frame rate** measures the number of individual video frames that your camera captures per second. A higher frame rate produces more cohesive and less jumpy video content, so improving this metric can improve the overall quality of your BigMarker recordings.  If you are able to update this framerate We recommend using a frame rate of** 45 frames/second. ** #### **3. Use the highest possible video bitrate (Super High).** On BigMarker, you have the ability to change the bitrate at which the cameras are shared. Video bitrate is the speed at which your video content uploads to the internet from your camera or your server. The higher the Bitrate, the clearer your presenters will be. To change the bitrate, visit the [session admin](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/introducing-the-new-session-admin?hsLang=en) of your live session, go to **Production \> Advanced** and look for **Video Bitrate**.  ![](https://kb.bigmarker.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-May-21-2026-03-56-37-1138-PM.png?width=600&height=284&name=image-png-May-21-2026-03-56-37-1138-PM.png) The options and the corresponding bitrate are: - Low: 0.5 mbps - Medium: 0.75 mbps - High (default): 1mbps - Very High: 1.5 mbps - Super High: 2 mbps Be aware that increasing this setting will require stronger internet connections from all presenters and attendees who share their cameras. #### **4. Use the VP9 video codec. ** VP9 is a video compression format that supports the full range of web and mobile use cases, from low bitrate compression to high-quality ultra-HD. We recommend encoding with VP9 to optimize your recording's quality.  To start encoding with VP9,** [consult Google's instructions.](https://developers.google.com/media/vp9/get-started) ** - [Getting Started](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [BigMarker Basics](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/getting-started?hsLang=en#bigmarker-basics) - [Intro to presenting](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/getting-started?hsLang=en#intro-to-presenting) - [Basics of the attendee experience](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/getting-started?hsLang=en#basics-of-the-attendee-experience) - [BigMarker Troubleshooting](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/getting-started?hsLang=en#bigmarker-troubleshooting) - [Hardware and Device Troubleshooting](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/getting-started?hsLang=en#hardware-and-device-troubleshooting) - [Network and internet troubleshooting](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/getting-started?hsLang=en#network-and-internet-troubleshooting) - [Home, Channel & Profile Settings](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/getting-started?hsLang=en#home-channel-profile-settings) - [Webinars and Series](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Creation & Setup](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#creation-setup) - [Advanced Settings](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#advanced-settings) - [Surveys, Stats & Certificates](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#surveys-stats-certificates) - [On-demand Webinars & Video](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#on-demand-webinars-video) - [Registration](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#registration) - [Emails & Invitations](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#emails-invitations) - [Attendee Experience](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#attendee-experience) - [Design](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#design) - [Promotion & Sharing](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/webinars-and-series?hsLang=en#promotion-sharing) - [Virtual & Hybrid Events](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/virtual-hybrid-events?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Event Setup](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/virtual-hybrid-events?hsLang=en#event-setup) - [Virtual Venue](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/virtual-hybrid-events?hsLang=en#virtual-venue) - [Registration](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/virtual-hybrid-events?hsLang=en#registration) - [Analytics/Integrations](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/virtual-hybrid-events?hsLang=en#analytics-integrations) - [Sessions and user journeys](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/virtual-hybrid-events?hsLang=en#sessions-and-user-journeys) - [Design](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/virtual-hybrid-events?hsLang=en#design) - [Sponsors & Networking](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/virtual-hybrid-events?hsLang=en#sponsors-networking) - [Hybrid Settings & Streaming](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/virtual-hybrid-events?hsLang=en#hybrid-settings-streaming) - [Presenter Capabilities](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/presenter-capabilities?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Using the Studio](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/presenter-capabilities?hsLang=en#using-the-studio) - [Presenter Settings & Permissions](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/presenter-capabilities?hsLang=en#presenter-settings-permissions) - [Content & Engagement](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/presenter-capabilities?hsLang=en#content-engagement) - [Integrations](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Webinar, Series and Event integrations](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#webinar-series-and-event-integrations) - [Channel Integrations](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#channel-integrations) - [In-person events & Mobile Event Apps](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/in-person-events-mobile-event-apps?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Event Companion App](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/in-person-events-mobile-event-apps?hsLang=en#event-companion-app) - [Scanner App, QR Codes & Badge Printing](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/in-person-events-mobile-event-apps?hsLang=en#scanner-app-qr-codes-badge-printing) - [BigMarker AI](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/bigmarker-ai?hsLang=en) - [Privacy, Security & Policies](https://kb.bigmarker.com/knowledge/privacy-security-policies?hsLang=en) [![Size=36px, Style=On-light, Brand=BigMarker-1](https://kb.bigmarker.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Size=36px%2c%20Style=On-light%2c%20Brand=BigMarker-1.png?width=171&height=36&name=Size=36px%2c%20Style=On-light%2c%20Brand=BigMarker-1.png "Size=36px, Style=On-light, Brand=BigMarker-1")](http://bigmarker.com) © 2010 - 2026 BigMarker.
