Choosing the optimal aspect ratio
While editing the video clip you will see that there are several options for choosing an aspect ratio. But what is the best option for your Livestream clip? Your aspect ratio differs per social media platform, so it is important to know which options work best:
- Facebook: For Facebook, the recommended aspect ratio is 16:9 (horizontal) and 9:16 (vertical).
- Instagram: Instagram supports different aspect ratios; however, the recommended aspect ratio is 1:1
- Twitter: Twitter supports different aspect ratios, just like Instagram. We recommend that the video ratios are 16:9 (horizontal) or 1:1 as the best output.
Personalize your live stream video clip
Personalize your Livestream clips by adding add-ons where you can choose between adding an intro, outro, or an overlay. By adding add-ons, your clips become more personal. The videos are recognizable to your viewers and you come across as more professional. SpotOn makes sure that you can easily personalize your clips with the following steps:
- Go to the overview page in SpotOn

With the addition of the add-ons, a copy of your video clip is made and added to the overview of your clip page. If you are not satisfied with your add-ons, you still have the original clip, which can be used.
