What Resize Video is for

For a clip whose dimensions are wrong for where it is going: 4K footage for a page that shows it at 720p, or a 60fps screen recording that only needs to be 30.

How to use it

  1. Add your files. Drop them on the page or choose them. They stay on your device.
  2. Set the output format and quality. The defaults suit most files.
  3. Press convert and save the results, individually or as one ZIP.

Questions

Does lowering the resolution make the file much smaller?

Yes, more than almost anything else. Going from 4K to 1080p removes three quarters of the pixels, and the file size follows closely.

Can I make a video higher resolution?

You can set a larger frame, but it will not add detail. Upscaling stretches what is there, producing a bigger file that looks softer than the original.

Should I change the frame rate?

Halving 60fps to 30 roughly halves the data and is invisible for talking heads and screen recordings. Keep 60 for fast motion and gameplay, where the smoothness is the point.

Will the aspect ratio change?

No. The presets keep the proportions and set the height, letting the width follow, so nothing is stretched or cropped.
