AUTOMATIC QUALITY LEVELSKeep the quality.
Keep the quality.
Skip the extra versions.
Every quality level is another version of your video. Chunkify predicts which resolutions are useful for the content and sets a bitrate for each one. Levels that add little value can be left out.
Fewer versions take less storage. Smaller files can lower your CDN costs and help viewers watch smoothly on slower connections.
| Resolution | Apple example | Chunkify per-title |
|---|---|---|
| 1080p | 6.00 / 7.80 Mbps | 1.87 Mbps |
| 720p | 3.00 / 4.50 Mbps | 0.68 Mbps |
| 540p | 2.00 Mbps | 0.20 Mbps |
| 432p | 0.73 / 1.10 Mbps | Skipped |
| 360p | 0.365 Mbps | Skipped |
| 234p | 0.145 Mbps | Skipped |
Apple’s HLS example has nine bitrate targets and recommends adapting them to the content. These Chunkify targets are predictions from the selected video sample.
310 GB less video data for 1,000 views. Estimates use the predicted targets, exclude audio and packaging, and vary with the video.
