Pick a recommended upload bitrate for a resolution and frame rate.
A resolution base rate is combined with a higher-frame-rate allowance and audio, then a 10 percent overhead is added for the upload link. Bitrate too low looks blocky while too high risks buffering, so a credible target keeps streams crisp at the resolution you promised.
