You can broadcast in different qualities, taking into consideration the computer you use, the internet connection speed, and your broadcast equipment.
If you have OBS already set up, you can go to the next level. This information will help you broadcast in different qualities taking into account the OBS values that can be adjusted, such as screen resolution, FPS numbers, Quality, and Bitrate.
OBS requires a stable internet connection. If you're streaming with WiFi or an unstable internet connection, we always recommend broadcasting from your Browser and not from OBS.
For any computer and camera, a minimum of 10 Mbps internet speed is necessary.
Below, you will find the advised quality values if you are getting started and don't have access to high-end equipment. This configuration is recommended over a higher one that will result in a choppy broadcast for the users viewing your show.
