Note on Quality Setting
When choosing a quality setting, it’s important to consider your audience’s connection speed. The connection speed is the rate that your audience connects to the Internet to browse the Web. This rate, often expressed in kilobits per second (Kbps), determines how quickly Web pages and other Web content loads when your audience is browsing the Web or watching other Web content.
Keep in mind that a higher Quality Setting will lead to larger video file sizes, however, the quality of the video itself will be better.
