As of last week you no longer need to have an invitation or buy your pack to try Stadia. Google has already opened registration for a free version of Stadia Base, offering two months of Stadia Pro subscriptions to all users so they can try out the paid version of their free streaming game platform.
At the announcement of the launch of Stadia in the world, Google reported that these days it was working on a temporary function which changes the default screen resolution from 4k to 1080p, but the user will be able to set the high quality again. So we take the opportunity to say how Stadia's quality is determined: its out of solution y HDR.
Set the maximum resolution
In order to configure Stadia's broadcast distribution we have to use the mobile app. Click on our avatar and select an option from the menu Data usage and performance. This option allows us to choose the maximum opt-out choice:
- Good viewing quality: Decision reaching 4K, HDR and 5.1 audio. Data usage up to 20 GB / hour. Only inside Stadia Pro
- A balanced feeling: Decision reaching 1080p and stereo sound. Data usage up to 12,6 GB / hour.
- Limited data usage: Decision reaching 720 and stereo sound. Data usage up to 4.5 GB / hour.
Configure HDR
Configuration of HDR is within a category Show. By default the option high power range It works, but if it can't play from any compatible HDR screen, it should be activated.
How to improve communication
To enjoy the best experience in Stadia, it's best to connect directly to our computer, laptop or Chromecast Ultra directly on ethernet cable connection. In case you are playing with wireless connection, it should be with connection WiFi 5 GHz.
The fiber connection we have to have should be Mbps is 35 or higher be able to play 4K. The slow connection Stadia accepts to play with a 10 Mbps resolution.
If all the wonderful Stadia could have been repaired we see that it doesn't end up working properly we can try to improve communication by reducing the high resolution and disabling HDR. Stadia automatically chooses the best decision depending on our connection to the screen we will be playing in, but if our team does not end up moving smoothly and without delay in the turn of the game we should do this configuration manually.
