Video Quality

When you play a video in the SuperNoodle video player, the player begins with a lower-quality rendition of the video to give you immediate playback. In the first few seconds of playback, the player also assesses your available bandwidth. It then automatically selects an optimal video rendition based on your current bandwidth.

Throughout playback, the video player repeatedly checks your bandwidth and adjusts your video quality accordingly. You may see changes in quality during video playback if your bandwidth fluctuates.

If your video quality is consistently grainy, your bandwidth is likely low; this can be due to a slow internet speed or a high-traffic network. See our Troubleshooting the Videos article.
