The higher the resolution and video bitrate, the better. Also 16: 9 ideally.
I don't care much about the graphic settings though.

Well, considering they're playing a 10 year old game...


Anyways, I don't think the poll answers are very good. It's like, "Would you rather have a small, medium or large pizza?" Since there's no downsides attached to the options (and I doubt most people took the time to consider them), of course people go for bigger.

1080p is fine, except the delay in encoding and uploading is not, and it only provides a marginal improvement over 720p. If you factor in time, I bet most people would even prefer to settle with 480. SC2 is nice looking and legible on all of them, and while the 1080p option would be nice for those of us with displays and internet connections that can handle it, the extra wait like we saw with HDH sucked imo.

I streamed a couple of Day9's casts onto a 42" LCD HDTV, and it still looked pretty beautiful. I don't think the switch to HD would've changed that much, if you're at normal viewing distance.

I think 720p (16 : 9 ) is pretty standard right now, most modern computers can munch that and most people have atleast 8mbps line.
1080i I'd say is a bit overboard right now, atleast for net streams. It's a lot more packets to transfer, presents a bigger CPU load and It only stands out at higher resolutions anyway.

I like the stream the HDH invitational offered. It was quite enough to watch a replay, you don't need a crazy monitor and crazy graphics card to watch SC2 on youtube
Losing game? Make infestors.

I know that my PC is built specifically for streaming, and while 6 months old, if I tried to cast at 1080p, the stream would start sputtering and skipping.

My screen res is 1680x1050, but I stream at 1280x800, and that is excellent enough quality for me to watch others at - though higher resolution is always fun to watch.

High.
