To give you the power to host and attend Airmeet sessions anywhere, we have built functionality that allows everyone to adjust their session resolutions.

You can do so by simply accessing the resolution dropdown on your screen.

1. For the Host, Speaker, or Attendee invited to the stage

If you’re on the live stage, then you’ll get HD ( High definition) and LD ( low definition) options on your stage.

Low definition streams at 480p.
High definition streams at 720p (for stage participants).

Note: The session quality doesn’t impact if you go from high to a low definition. It’s just for adjusting your individual view. This shall allow you to host/deliver your session seamlessly, even in places with low internet connectivity.

2. For Attendee

You can choose among four different steaming resolutions if you're an Attendee.

Navigate to the right-hand side corner of your session frame→. Choose the resolution which suits your connectivity preferences.

High Definition: Streams in 720p
Low Definition: Streams in 480p
Audio Only Mode: You will be ONLY able to hear the speakers on the stage (used in case of the low network)
Lite Mode: It is an optimized version of Airmeet for an unstable network. Stream lags behind the standard stream by an utmost of 30 sec.
