Trying to record demo in 1080

I like to answer questions not only for the benefit of the original poster but for those who find these questions looking for answers in the future. I don't know what Lieve answered before, but I will add my reply and hopefully, it helps someone.

If your pc is older and only has a resolution of 1366 x 768 or something like that, you will never get actual HD quality. When you start recording a video demo, you need to be recording at a resolution of at least 1920 x 1080.

Once you are satisfied with your video demo, many people might select File > Publish to YouTube. Selecting this option will publish your video demo using Adobe Captivate's YouTube Widescreen HD settings, which are far from ideal. These settings are only 1280 x 720, 15 frames per second and extremely compressed. Instead, I use the following settings. I set my resolution to 1920 x 1080 resolution. Then select the Profile and choose High and set the level to 5.1. Profile refers to the complexity involved to encode H.264 (the higher the number, the better the end quality). Next, set your quality at 100%. You probably only need a setting of 75% or so but may as well use the highest setting. I also change my frame rate to 30 fps. This will yield an HD quality video of your video demo.

Remember that MP4 H.264 files are compressed files, and you will never see the original uncompressed quality unless you return to your original Video Demo. This, however, is suitable for most people's needs. Also, YouTube will further compress the video when you upload it. If you want to minimize quality loss, I would recommend Vimeo. However, YouTube has more of a mass-market appeal for what that's worth.

Answered same question yesterday? Where is that answer?
