More questions? Contact usAre videos uploaded? Are credits required?
Processing stays on your device and uses no credits. This page opens the compressor in the desktop app.
Is a compression ratio guaranteed?
No. Results depend on the source codec, bitrate and content. Already optimized videos may not shrink; actual sizes are always shown.
Which formats and sizes are supported?
Supports MP4, MOV, MKV, WebM, AVI and M4V, up to 2 GB and 60 minutes. Outputs H.264/AAC MP4.
What happens to audio, subtitles and HDR?
The first audio track is converted to AAC. Extra tracks and subtitles are omitted. HDR is tone-mapped to SDR; preview the result before use.
How do I preview a large result?
Results up to 200 MB can be previewed inline. Save larger results to view them in a local player.
