SIDE NOTE: If the production standard preset does not work for you and you want to compress the file size even more, then I would recommend using another output format such as Fast 1080p30 or Very Fast 1080p30. This should do the trick for normal video use 😊 Any questions just let me know.

After viewing several youtube tutorials on compressing videos using handbrake I found these are the right settings to use. Thank you.

All compressed videos will be suitable to upload/watch to KZread. It might be worthwhile using the KZread/Vimeo presets though, as Handbrake optimises the video especially for those platforms. P.S I'm glad you found the tutorial helpful and straightforward😊

While viewing the preview for a preset, it shows at the top like 86 percent of the original size , is it the resultant size of the file i am gonna get? Plz tell.

Great hack,thanks 👊🔥🔥🔥

I downloaded Handbrake and used this tutorial to get a 802MB file compressed down to a feathery 709MB file. Maybe the 1080p30 will work better.

Thanks, I'm new to Handbrake and looking tips. JW, can Handbrake merge multiple videos while compressing them at the same time? I'm trying to make one long family video out of 4 or 5 videos. Thanks again.

@FeverDaysCreatives

3 ай бұрын

I don't believe you are able to merge videos in Handbrake - I'm afraid (unless there is a secret feature that I am not aware of!😅). It is probably best to compile the videos together in an editing software first, export the entire video and then compress the final file.

@Bearded_Toy_Guy

3 ай бұрын

@FeverDaysCreatives thanks, I've come to that realization as well. But I compress them first using Handbrake, then use VideoPad to merge them together. Seems faster this way to batch compress all the files first so they don't take as long to merge them later. Thanks again 😃

mine just becomes some code or something it doesnt become a video

hello there! your video is very helpful but can you please helpme how can I edit the whole folder with like 20 videos in it? i tried drag drop the folder but folder showing empty so I need to edit 1 by 1. thank you so much in advance

When compressing more than a single file, like when the source choice is "File". Only the first video will appear in the "title" field. To accomplish what you're describing we have to bring the Queue into the process. Just to the right of the open source button there is a button that read " Add to queue". Pressing the arrow on the left edge if the "Title" field reveals all the titles in the folder, but Handbrake can only process them one at a time. This is where the Add to button comes in. Work your way down the file list, and when that title shows in the Title field, press the Add to Queue button. To the left of the Start Encode button you'll find a Queue button. Open that to double check you've selected all the files desired. If that looks OKay, feel free to use the Start Queue button on the left side of the Queue list. Hope this helps.

Hello! I recorded a class at my yoga studio. It is 6.95GB, my software where I can rent out videos of our classes only allows 10MB. I've used your tutorial but it only reduced it to 5.04GB. How do I get it even smaller, without losing quality? Is that even possible? Thank You!!!

@FeverDaysCreatives

Hey! 6.95GB to 10MB is a hefty jump but if you try another output setting such as Very Fast 1080p30 or Fast1080p that should reduce it. Alternatively you can also put the compressed version through Handbrake a second time to try and get the size right down. Hopefully this works for you - let me know how you get on. P.S I'm a yoga fan so Namaste :)

Hmm that's strange. To compress it further you could opt for another preset (such as Vimeo KZread HQ 2160p60 4K:), choose the H.265 encoder (as H.265 files tend to be smaller and more compressed than H.264), or increase the RF number on the constant quality slider. Sometimes settings aren't a one-size-fits-all but adjusting the above should help your files become even smaller!

I'm curious how to reduce it 10x times or more. I used different programs and I got approximately the same size after compressing. If I want to compress more I will start losing quality.

@FeverDaysCreatives

You can still compress longer videos in Handbrake however depending on your computer spec and output preset, it may impact your overall processing time. I suspect your encoding time will be quite slow due to the duration of the video!

Applied same process, thats increase video size even from my original video,from 98Mb to 266 Mb.

Hey! I’m not too sure which file size metric you mean by ‘mo’ and ‘go’ but if you want your file to be compressed even smaller then it might be worth playing around with the output preset settings. If production standard doesn’t work, you could try one of the other presets eg Fast1080p or VeryFast1080p. That should do the trick!

I just tried this and tripled the size of the videos I've tried and is not reducing them at all.

@FeverDaysCreatives

Hmm strange, those settings have always produced a smaller file size for me! 🤔 Try changing the encoding preset from production standard to Discord Nitro. There are different Discord Nitro presets based on your video duration and resolution but overall they are all designed to produce super super small file sizes so that should work. Hopefully this works for you, let me know how you get on!

I don't know why they always put slow videos for the final result, because they don't test with videos of many movements, for example with bushes or trees, that's where the final result is seen, if it is not pixelated. so dislike

I don't know why, but in all the video tutorials on the tube, the things you show have nothing to do with reality! file size 157 MB. I could barely get it down to 139mb. and with an obvious loss of quality!
