What does the Video Compressor do?
The Video Compressor re-encodes a single upload with constant-rate-factor style quality steps instead of asking you to type bitrates manually. Four selectable tiles translate to CRF values 23, 28, 33, and 38—lower numbers bias toward quality and larger outputs, higher numbers chase smaller files with more visible compromise. A separate Encoding speed row chooses how much CPU time the worker should spend: Fast sends an ultrafast-style preset for quicker turnaround, Medium is the default balanced pass, and Slow favors efficiency per bit at the cost of longer queues. Submitting uploads the clip and posts both the chosen CRF and encoder preset string to the media job API. When processing completes, the download card can show megabytes before and after plus a rounded percent-smaller line derived from returned byte sizes.
Expectations
The helper copy under the controls claims that at the Balanced preset many videos shrink about forty to seventy percent with minimal quality loss; treat that as guidance, not a promise—screen recordings, grainy drone footage, and already tiny web rips behave differently. This tool does not expose resolution pickers; it focuses on quality/size tradeoffs through CRF and encoder effort.
