# Premium 1080p Stream Settings

***

## **Overview**

1080p Premium is a high-quality streaming mode designed to maximize video and audio quality.

* 1080p60 streaming
* Fixed video bitrate of 8,500 kbps
* AAC 320 kbps high-quality audio
* Video and audio passthrough streaming
* Approximately 1 second of low-latency playback
* Revenue share: 27% (19% for Partner Streamers)

Unlike Standard Stream, 1080p Premium does not re-encode your video or audio on CIME's servers. Instead, your stream is delivered directly to viewers using passthrough streaming.

This provides a higher-quality viewing experience for content where image and audio quality matter most, including gaming, music, and live performances.

## **1. Copy Your Stream Key and Server URL**

1. Open CIME Studio → \[Live Dashboard] → \[Stream Setup].
2. Copy your Stream Key.
3. Select 1080p Premium under Streaming Mode and copy the **Server URL**.

## **2. Set up OBS**

Before configuring OBS, we recommend creating a new profile or duplicating an existing one. This helps prevent accidental changes to your current setup and makes it easier to manage multiple streaming configurations.

Open: OBS → \[Settings] → \[Stream]

| **Setting** | **Value**                          |
| ----------- | ---------------------------------- |
| Service     | Custom                             |
| Server      | Server URL copied from CIME Studio |
| Stream Key  | Stream Key provided by CIME Studio |
