- Hi supportsib,
fps means Frames per second. Here is a definition
https://www.techopedia.com/definition/7297/frames-per-second-fps#:~:text=%20Techopedia%20explains%20Frames%20Per%20Second%20%28FPS%29%20,5%2072p%20is%20an%20experimental%20format.%20More%20
The greater the FPS, the smoother the video motion appears, and the greater the speed at which images are shown. Full-motion video is usually 30 FPS or greater. For example, movies are usually displayed at 24fps, since this frame rate is similar to how we see the world, and creates a very cinematic look. Video that’s broadcast live or video with a lot of motion, such as a sporting event or video game recording, will often have a higher frame rate, as there’s a lot happening at once and a higher frame rate keeps the motion smooth and the details crisp.
Some Teams cameras are designed to be able to capture higher fps

Video content with a higher frame rate has more data to transmit compared to a video with a lower frame rate, but as the article below states - which is a good read - you may not need 60 fps depending on what you are trying to achieve

540p on 1080p screen means 540 pixel videos on a 1080 pixel screen refers to the resolution of the video call. As a general rule the higher the resolution the higher the bandwidth. Now, groups calls because they have more people on them will be higher bandwidth than peer-to-peer or 1:1 video calls.
There is a uservoice open to be able to set your own video resolution quality in the Teams Meeting here

Hope that answers your question

Hi,
Changing to 60fps will require more bandwidth than 30fps because the video stream doubles the frame rate, resulting in smoother playback but higher data usage. For instance, a 1.2 Mbps HD 720p stream at 30fps might need closer to 1.8-2 Mbps for 60fps, depending on compression efficiency.
As for "540p videos on a 1080p screen," the video resolution (540p) is being upscaled to fit the higher resolution of a 1080p display. While the video plays at a larger size, the quality may not match true 1080p due to the lower original resolution.
