After the file saving settings we have the movie video output options. These can make a significant impact on the quality of the video output and the time required to create it.

Generally speaking, the higher the quality of the video the longer the movie export will take. 

The Video Resolution setting affects both the size of the output file and the quality of the output. Here the the way the video will be presented will be quite important. If we include the video in a PowerPoint presentation, using the XGA or HD (720p) options are usually fine, especially if the video does not take the entire slide. If we export it for full screen viewing then Full HD (1080p) up to Ultra HD (4K) may be preferrable, but we should remember that the time it takes to render the video will increase significantly, and so will the output file size, for what may appear to be only a marginal gain in image quality in many cases. For example, going from 1080p to 4K will typically double the rendering time. arivis also support 360 video outputs which can be quite interesting in some cases, but requires viewers that support this format and some user interactivity to set the view angle when playing back the video.

The frame rate affects how smooth the video playback can be. Low frame rates (below 24FPS) can appear a little jerky, while 25-30FPS is the standard for most videos. Using 60FPS can appear smoother, and is recommended for 360 videos, but some video players won't be able to play back these high framerates smoothly resulting in noticeable jumps as the media player lags and then catches up to the required framerate. The most important thing to note is that going from 30FPS to 60FPS will require at least twice as much time to process the video and will result in a file that is about twice as large. 

Generally, we recommend using a low video resolution and framerate (720p at 25FPS) to produce a video quickly, and switch to high resolution and higher framerates only on occasions to really showcase data only as needed.
