Explanation of Resolution, FPS, Duration
Understanding these fundamental parameters is crucial for creating high-quality AI-generated videos. Each parameter directly impacts the visual quality, file size, and processing time of your videos.
📐 Resolution
The number of pixels that make up your video's width and height dimensions.
🎬 Frame Rate (FPS)
The number of individual frames displayed per second, affecting motion smoothness.
⏱️ Duration
The length of your video, typically measured in seconds or minutes.
How Each Parameter Affects Video Quality
Each parameter has a direct impact on your video's quality, file size, and processing requirements. Understanding these relationships helps you make informed decisions about your video settings.
Resolution Impact Analysis
Higher Resolution Benefits:
- Sharper, more detailed visuals
- Better for large displays and presentations
- Professional appearance
- Future-proof content
Higher Resolution Costs:

60 FPS
Ultra-smooth motion, ideal for action content
Duration vs. Quality Trade-offs
Longer videos require more computational resources and may experience quality degradation. Here's how duration affects different aspects:
Short Videos (5-15 seconds):
- Highest quality per second
- Faster processing
- Perfect for social media
- Lower resource usage
Long Videos (30+ seconds):
- May require quality compromises
- Longer processing times
- Better for storytelling
- Higher resource requirements
