There are several factors that affect the quality of graphics, sound and video files. However improving the quality has the disadvantage of increasing the file sizw since more bits need to be used to store the extra details.
Resolution is a measure of the size of the pixels in an image. High resolution graphics have a large number of pixels and low resolution graphics have a small number of pixels. High resolution graphics have better quality but larger file sizes than low resolution graphics.
colour depth is the number of bits that are used for the colour code of each pixel. The higher the number of bits, the more colours can be represented. Increasing the colour depth will give better quality colour graphics but will increase the size of the file.
Sampling rate the number of times that the sound is stampled per minute (digital sound is created by taking a stample of the sound many times every second). A higher stample rate will result in a better-quality digitalised sound but will increase file size.
Frame rate , the quality of video data is determined by the number of frames that are capture per second. Each frame has settings for resolution and color depth. The file size increases for higher frame rates, resolution and colour depth.
