ABOUT THIS TOOL
Large video files can be problematic: email attachments have size limits, social platforms compress heavily, and storage fills up quickly. This compressor reduces file size by tuning the quality and optionally scaling down resolution.
Choose a preset quality level or reduce resolution to hit your target file size. The tool shows a downloadable MP4 output for maximum compatibility.
FAQ
How much can I reduce file size?
It depends on the original file. Medium quality often reduces size by 30-70%.
Will quality be noticeably worse?
Medium quality is usually acceptable. Low quality shows more artifacts, especially in motion.
What affects file size most?
Resolution has the biggest impact. Reducing to 50% scale can reduce size dramatically.
What's the best setting for email?
Medium quality plus a small scale reduction often keeps files under common limits while looking good.
Can I compress without losing quality?
Some reduction is always needed. Lossless compression offers minimal size reduction for video.
