Hello, everyone! You'll be happy to know that I've increased the file upload limit on the forum to 16 MB. This will provide a bit more room for uploading videos to your projects and other posts. If your video is too large, I'd recommend checking out Avidemux. It's quite simple to use to shrink a video down to a desired size. You can find step-by-step instructions below, as well as a GIF demonstrating it visually!
- Open your video in Avidemux
- Choose MP4 Muxer from the Output Format dropdown on the left
- Choose Mpeg4 AVC (x264) from the Video Output dropdown on the left
- Click the Configure button underneath that
- Choose Video Size (Two Pass) from the Encoding Mode dropdown towards the bottom of that dialog
- Enter a file size in the Target Video Size field (~1-2 MB below the desired size to ensure it's small enough)
- Click OK, then File -> Save and choose a file name. That's it! 👍
