How to Adjust Audio Quality

Change Encoding Options

  1. Under the "Dashboard" tab, click "Upload Files"
  2. Click the "Encoding Options" tab

  3. When finished, click "Save Changes"

Advanced Features: Encoding Options

Before you upload your media files, you may want to configure how your media will be encoded.  For most purposes, you will never need to modify the default settings.  However, if you are an audiophile or are attempting to get the best stream rate or best quality, you may want to configure how your videos will be encoded.

The multi-file upload form contains a tab for Encoding Options at the top of the page.  Select this tab to visit your account encoding options page.

Dashboard -> Upload Files -> Encoding Options

On the encoding options form, you may set all of the following:

  • audio bitrate
  • frequency
  • stereo options

When changing the default options, you may need to be aware of the following points:

  • The simple rule is: the higher the quality settings, the more bandwidth is used.  The lower the quality the faster the media will download and stream.
  • Phone recordings always record at the lowest audio quality rate because the US telephone system uses a quality which is even lower than the PubClip lowest quality.
