However, for optimal results, videos should be uploaded to the Infinite Uploads video library. This dedicated video library offers greater performance features, such as adaptive bitrate playback and dedicated player controls. Files in the dedicated video library are stored in a separate storage container with its own storage counter, which is distinct from the Cloud Storage & CDN Overview but still counts toward your overall plan limits.
