## Video file recommendations
To ensure optimal playback quality for uploaded videos in Kajabi Communities, please upload videos using the following recommended settings:
**Resolution:** 1920×1080 (16:9)
Standard Full HD, 16:9 aspect ratio
**Bitrate**: 5,000–8,000 kbps
Ensures sufficient detail for streaming
**Codec:** H.264 (High Profile)
Widely supported compression format
**Frame Rate**: 30 fps (constant)
Smooth playback for most content
**Audio**: AAC 128–160 kbps
Standard high-quality audio
**Warning:** Videos that do not meet these recommend specifications may appear blurry or scale incorrectly.
**Note:**
* Videos with non-standard aspect ratios (e.g., 1920×1074) may scale and appear less sharp
* Low-bitrate videos (under 1,000 kbps) may appear well on a desktop but will degrade noticeably after upload to a Community
* If the bitrate is less than the recommended value, the quality will degrade, even if the video has 1080 resolution
* Re-exporting videos according to these settings will significantly improve clarity
## Upload a video larger than 1 GB
Channel posts, comments, and chat messages have a 1 GB file size limit. If your video is larger than that, host it on a member-only website page instead, then share that page's link in your Channel post, comment, or chat message.
1. From the Dashboard, click **Website**.
2. Click **Website Pages**.
3. Select the **Website** folder.
4. Click **+ New Website Page**.
5. Enter a name for your page.
6. Click **Customize Page**.
7. Add a [video block](https://help.kajabi.com/articles/website/pages/how-to-add-a-video-block-to-your-pages) to the page and upload your video. Videos on website pages can be up to 4 GB.
8. Click **Back to Website Pages**.

14. Paste the URL into your Channel post, comment, or chat message.
**Note:** Member-only visibility is only available for website pages, not landing pages. If you build the page as a landing page instead, you won't be able to restrict it to members only.
