For the fastest processing, efficient quota usage, and best playback experience on MediaZilla, we recommend the following settings when exporting your videos.
Video
Container: MP4 or MOV
Codec: H.264 (widely compatible) or H.265/HEVC (smaller file sizes, more efficient but slower to encode)
Resolution: Upload in HD (1080p) or 4K for the best viewer experience. Lower resolutions are supported but not recommended. Always use even-numbered width and height values.
Frame Rate: Export in the same frame rate you filmed in (to avoid stuttering)
Recommended Bitrates
Resolution | Recommended Bitrate |
480p (SD) | 3,500 kbps |
720p (HD) | 7,500 kbps |
1080p (Full HD) | 15,000 kbps |
4K (Ultra HD) | 35,000 kbps |
Audio
Codec: AAC-LC
Bitrate: 320 kbps
Sample Rate: 48 kHz or lower
Why These Settings?
Faster uploads & processing: Smaller, optimized files encode more quickly.
Efficient quota usage: H.265 in particular reduces file size without sacrificing quality.
Smooth playback: Matching frame rates prevents jitter or dropped frames.
