How to compress a video file

When attempting to upload a video file to some online platforms such as Coach Builder Pro (CBP), there might be a file size limit for each individual video. For very long videos that are large files, you can compress the video to reduce the file size without decreasing the video quality if needed.

You can do this by using a "Video Compressor" online. We've personally used VEED's Video Compressor which has done a great job (you may or may not be required to make an account to use this tool - but give it a try!).

Alternatively, you can google "free video compressor" to see if any good options come up (just make sure it looks like a legit site and seems safe to use).

You will know if you need to compress the video if the platform says the file is too large to upload. In that case, you can use a video compressor to decrease the file size to below the maximum file size limit of the platform. You can then upload that new compressed video file!
