• Target 4K when possible for maximum clarity and flexibility
• Ensure sufficient upload bandwidth before streaming at higher resolutions
• Revert to 1080p at 30fps if stability or dropped frames appear
• Hardware encoding strongly recommended
• Bicubic or Lanczos scaling depending on system capability
4K looks great when your system and connection can support it. A stable 1080p stream is always better than an unstable 4K stream.
• 48 kHz sample rate for broadcast consistency
• Compressor on voice to even out commentary levels
• Limiter set to -3 dB to prevent clipping
• Desktop audio configured intentionally or disabled when not needed
Clear audio matters as much as video. Consistent voice levels and clean mixes dramatically improve the viewing experience.
PinRig recommends testing your stream at full resolution in advance and prioritizing stability over pushing specs during live broadcasts.
