1. Overview


Go Live without being Live! Just pre-record your video and play it at your Airmeet event. This feature will surely level up your online event and drive more engagement saving your own time and dismissing the availability of a few key speakers and content. 



2. How many pre-recorded videos can we upload? What should be the size of the video?


The event organizer can upload as many pre-recorded videos as you need for your event.

  • The maximum size of each video is 5 GB
  • Supported format .MP4 (h264 codec)
  • Resolution videos are played at - 720p

Disclaimer: Airmeet compresses the uploaded video quality by the organizer/host on the dashboard.




Tip : For compressing your video (incase file limit is greater than 2GB) you can use a handbrake tool to compress, kindly refer to below link:

The session host and co-host can play pre-recorded content during the session.
