    The larger the file size, the longer it takes to download before the video starts. To reduce file size, you can reduce the bit rate, but doing so reduces the quality of the video. The following bit rates optimize download speed and video quality:
    Video resolution Recommended bitrate
    Standard definition (480p) 1.5–2.5 megabits per second (mbps)
    High definition (720p) 3–5 mbps
    High definition (1080p) 6–8 mbps
