Does LiveGoLive change my video’s quality?

1 min readUpdated 2 Nov 2026

Short answer

No. Your video is sent as it is, without re-encoding. Only the sound is converted once, to AAC, so every platform accepts it.

Video

LiveGoLive sends your video exactly as you uploaded it: the same picture size, frame rate and quality. That’s why the file itself has to meet your platform’s rules.

Sound

Sound is converted once to AAC (stereo, 44.1 kHz, 128 kbps), which every platform we offer accepts. Pictures have no sound of their own.

Your files

Your uploaded files are never changed. Conversion happens only on the way to your channel.
