How to View Recording and
Broadcasting Status
When your tablet is recording or broadcasting video, the following status information
shows under the System bar.
Note The status icons show information only. You cannot modify recording or
broadcasting settings from the status icons.
• Broadcast quality. For example, Low Quality is 360p, Medium Quality is
480p, and High Quality is 720p. Ultra Quality is 1080p. Ultra Quality is not
available for broadcast, but you can record and share Ultra Quality video. For
more information, see Record and Share Your Gameplay
.
• Frame rate per second (fps). For example, Medium and High Quality
typically broadcast at about 30 fps. Low Quality typically broadcasts at 25
fps. Lower frame rates require less bandwidth.
• Network speed (Mbps). Many factors affect the network speed, including
the strength of your local Wi-Fi connection and which Twitch server you are
connected to. Network speed is shown when you are recording video even if
you are not broadcasting.
• Viewers. The number next to the viewer icon shows the number of people
who are watching your broadcast.
• Mute. If your microphone is muted, a mute icon shows. If the microphone is
not muted, no microphone icon shows.
