So you just had an awesome Zoom Meeting and you remembered to hit the record button. It was so good, you want to post it online but the quality just isn’t that good.
In this video, I’m going to show you how to dramatically increase the quality of your Zoom meetings. All of this and more is coming up next.
Zoom has some awesome video recording options. In fact, let’s take a look at some of these right now.
As you can see, all the best features for recording video with Zoom are only available if you use Cloud Storage. Take a look at this cool feature, you can actually record active speaker, gallery view, and screen shares all at the same time. But only in the cloud.
Another really cool feature worth testing is called “Optimize the recording for 3rd party video editors.” This feature implies that the video files are going to be really good. So let’s take a closer look.,
Here is a video file recorded to my local hard-drive. And here is a video recorded in the cloud and then downloaded for comparison.
When we are talking about video quality, there are really two important things to consider. Resolution and Bitrate.
Zoom recordings are technically HD
So that’s everything I know about increasing the video quality of your Zoom Meeting Recordings. I have a guide that you can download at the link below. It includes how to connect OBS and Zoom, How to enable HD Mode, and everything we discussed in this video as well.
So check out the blog post below. Cheers!

can you explain straight to the point? I spent a while here... but still couldn't find a TLDR version of "How to Increase the Quality of your Zoom Recordings!"

Video is way too long. Get to the point.

Agree. Don't use optimize, and turn on HD if you're using a paid account. But likely there are some geeks who'd want/use the bit rate discussion.

Agree with you. It felt like I am attending a class in uni.

HD is only for paid accounts, and currently says it requires 2 days notice of request for some of their paid account types. 720 is only available with meetings of 3 or more participants. I don't understand this, because if a record is stored locally, and running Zoom as a local app, and not streaming out, it would have zero impact on their infrastructure. A common use case, for production of a video, such as youtube.

9:35 The zoom paid plan comes with 1GB storage and not 1TB. Above that you need to purchase additional storage. I am not sure what their exact policy is since I found that it is not a hard limit and it is possible to record more than 1GB and you will receive an email that you have gone over quota.

Yakov you are right thanks for noting that. I also noticed it’s not a hard limit

Paul, thanks so much for your video. The information was really helpful. I will let you know how this helps with my yoga video recordings. I am doing a hybrid yoga class where some people are in person and some are in zoom. I want to record and upload these classes to my website. The first try was no bueno. The sound was trash. I am going to try hooking up my Rhode mics to the zoom this week. I did not know that I could connect OBS, so thanks for that as well!

Hi! How did the 2nd round of recording go?

@chowbacca 3 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the comparisons. I was curious to know the bitrate of the various recordings. Unfortunately with our workflow we can only record to cloud. Maybe in the future Zoom will increase the bitrate of cloud recordings.

Is the 1080p option available for the basic/free version of Zoom? Or, is a paid for version required? I don't see the 1080p option available in my Zoom settings or preferences panels. BTW, I am not using OBS, just the Mac OS and Chrome browser.

I record both gallery view and speaker view. The speaker-view video recording is always 340x480. Is there any way to improve it?

I do a lot of security-sensitive Zoom work and I will not send anything to the cloud.

I'm more concerned with Audio. Does OBS help the audio recording quality if I have a good audio setup on my end?

@StreamGeeks 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Alara, it definitely will. Using OBS you don’t need to send the audio over the internet and saving to your local hard drive is much higher quality when you use a good bitrate

You have to "ask" Zoom to enable HD. I just did it for our church. We have the Pro Account. It does improve the quality it a little. I'm very upset with Zoom. They sell you a car with four tires BUT they only give you 3 until you ask for it. It seems like Zoom still lives in 2010 with the video quality.

@Arthur Harder I then decided to stream my class live on youtube at 1080p and run Zoom in parallel (at back end) only for the conference call (without video) to hear and conversate with my students like it's done in a classroom.
