Same format
The copy stays in the video’s own format; an unusual one becomes MP4.
Make a video small enough for email, chat and uploads. It stays in its own format, and the copy is kept only when it really is smaller.
How it works
Open Tools › Video › Compress video, or drop videos on the window.
Choose Recommended or Smallest, and a smaller picture size if you like.
Find the smaller copy next to the original.
What you get
The copy stays in the video’s own format; an unusual one becomes MP4.
A copy that is not really smaller is thrown away, and you are told why.
Bring a 4K video down to 1080p or 720p for the biggest savings.
The smaller copy is saved beside it; nothing is overwritten.
Good to know
First time? The install guide shows every screen, including the Windows warning.
It depends on the video. Phone and screen recordings often shrink a lot; videos already compressed for the web have less to remove.
