# Threads video

We recommend Threads video in 1:1 at 1080 x 1080 pixels and 25 frames per second, with subtitles burned in, because video plays without sound.

Platform: Threads. Ratio: 1:1. Size: 1080 x 1080 pixels. These are Avola Media's own recommendations, not platform specifications.

## Specification

| Item | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Recommended | 1080 x 1080 pixels |
| Minimum | Not published |
| Frame rate | 25 frames per second |
| Subtitles | Burned into the video |
| Safe zone | About 1080 x 918 pixels |

## Notes

- The player controls sit at the bottom and in the corner, roughly the bottom 15 percent. We place subtitles centered just above.

## Exact areas

All positions are in pixels from the top left corner of the 1080 x 1080 pixel frame. A picture that overlaps an edge can have its centre outside the frame.

- Covered or cropped by the app, bottom edge: x 0, y 918, 1080 x 162 pixels.
- Safe zone edge: the SVG path "M0 0H1080V918H0Z", which spans x 0, y 0, 1080 x 918 pixels.
- Where we place burned-in subtitles: x 100, y 760, 880 x 140 pixels.
