Frequently Asked Questions

How much smaller will my video be?
It depends on the source. The Small File Size preset typically achieves 60-80% reduction. Combining it with resolution downscaling (e.g. 4K to 1080p) can reduce files by 90% or more.
Can I compress a video for Discord or email?
Yes. Discord's file limit is 25 MB for free users. Use the Small File Size preset and downscale to 720p to get most clips under that limit. For email, 480p works well for keeping attachments small.
Does compression reduce video quality?
Some quality loss is inevitable when compressing, but the Balanced and High Quality presets minimize it. The encoder uses H.264 with optimized settings to preserve as much detail as possible at each file size.
