What is i and p?
p means progressive scan: every frame is captured or drawn as a complete image. i means interlaced scan: each frame is split into odd and even fields. 1080p50 means 50 full frames per second. 1080i50 means 50 fields per second, usually 25 full frames per second. Progressive is generally better for YouTube, phones, computer screens, and web delivery.
How this is calculated
Storage uses bitrate x duration. Interlaced bitrate is estimated from full frame rate plus a small interlace complexity factor, not blindly doubled by field rate.
Example workflow
Use YouTube SEO Checklist before recording, exporting, uploading, or publishing. Start with a realistic value, press calculate or generate, then copy the result into your production notes, upload checklist, or client estimate.
Common use cases
