The Video Optimizer helps you get the most out of your service when streaming video content.
How it works:
Hughesnet® automatically adjusts data rates for streaming video to deliver great picture quality while using less of your data. Streaming is optimized with video streams up to HD quality. For best performance, leave any video streaming applications at their default automatic resolution setting. Most video services are supported. Not all video sources are identifiable.
Can I watch movies in HD with Hughesnet?
Yes! Your service is automatically set to stream videos up to HD quality. You can choose to temporarily disable the feature for up to 4 hours using the Snooze button. It’s easy to manage your video optimizer settings using the Hughesnet Mobile App or on myhughesnet.com.
