Here is a tip: don't use tons of zoom levels in your map. All you are doing is stacking megabytes ontop megabytes. This makes map files huge and very time consuming to download all those tiles.
Find a zoom level that has good water/land color contrast since these can be kind of hard to see on a sunny day. I use zoom level 19 for the ESRI sat map.
At the end of the creation process increase your resolution levels to 1-64 (video says 1-16 I think). This allows to to clearly zoom in on the map.
This cut my map tile download time and file sizes 50-75%

spot on what he said. zoom level 19 and resolution 1-32 or 64, the video isn't wrong but you just need one zoom level. I use the same map ersi zoom 19.
