The word bitrate sounds a bit complicated, but of course the video and audio files. It is also often found in various situations, such as mobile phones and Internet lines.<\/p>\n
What is the bit rate? It’s surprisingly helpful to remember it sensually, so please remember it.<\/p>\n
I think the person who visited this page is a beginner asking “What is bitrate?” , so I hope I can explain it in the easiest and simplest way possible.<\/p>\n
Bitrate Basics
\nTo briefly explain bitrate, it refers to the amount of data per second for communication such as video files, music files, and the Internet.<\/p>\n
The so-called playback and communication are data streams. This flow uses a unit called bps (Bit Per Second) to indicate how many bits flow in one second (Per Second).<\/p>\n
I think it’s easy to understand if you imagine the road that a car is driving on. The car is the data and the data flow is the road.<\/p>\n
Considering that a highway with many cars carries a lot of people and luggage, it can be said that a large amount of data (information) flows. This is called high bit rate.<\/p>\n
On the contrary, if there are few cars running, it can be said that little data (information) flows. This is called low bit rate.<\/p>\n

Should the bitrate be high?
\nA high bit rate means a large amount of information. If there is a lot of information, it sounds great, like high image quality for videos and high sound quality for music, but it has a big drawback.<\/p>\n
The downside of a high bitrate is that it increases the data capacity of a single file. If the data capacity is too large, it can take time to send it to someone or move data between hard drives, making it difficult to manage.<\/p>\n
Therefore, the codec was developed to reduce data capacity while maintaining high image and sound quality. I’ll talk about codecs another time, but you need to set the bitrate considering the balance between picture quality, sound quality and file capacity so that the data capacity is easy to manage.<\/p>\n
How to check the bitrate
\nYou can check the bitrate by looking at the detailed information of video and music files on both Windows and Mac.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
