Use videos
Cornerstone Classroom App and Express clients support both 720p High Definition (HD) resolution and non-720p (Standard) resolution videos.
720p High Definition (HD) resolution video is supported only in the Cornerstone Classroom Premium Video mode. Whereas, non-720p resolution video is supported in the Cornerstone Classroom Standard Video mode.
With Premium Video mode support, Cornerstone Classroom provides an improved 1-on-1 meeting experience with larger side-by-side videos without content. It also facilitates an immersive training experience through virtual classes that require large-sized 720p HD videos.
It is expected that Cornerstone Classroom Premium Video mode would require a higher bandwidth usage than traditional Standard Video mode experience.
