![]() That could shrink a video nicely in some cases, and speed up the viewing as well. I'm just not finding any video editing apps that do downsampling or file conversion the way many programs do on my PCs.Ī feature that would also be handy would be to drop frames to create a time-lapse effect, retaining every tenth frame, or every 20th, for example. That's a reasonable compromise yielding good quality video while still allowing most of the camera's video features to be used.īut it would be nice to have a tool, on the phone itself, to reduce the resolution and file size as well as allow cropping and editing of these videos. To that end, I usually leave the video set to record in 1080P at 30 fps. I prefer to shoot videos in fairly high resolution and at reasonable frame rates so I have good quality (albeit large file-size) files for various uses. You're right that to retain high quality, there's really no way other than uploading the big file to a file-sharing or video-sharing service, and the sending the link to the recipient. But I would at least like to have an on-phone app that is capable of doing downsampling, file type conversion, and have adjustable compression settings. ![]() Yes, I realize that compressing a long high res video down to a size that will be reasonable for email, let alone MMS will obviously require its resolution to be reduced and the compression increased to a fairly heavy-handed level. At least if the video is over some length, and it does not know that ahead of time. I figured one of the main things these modern phones would be good at is sharing stuff in the true spirit of "social media".Īnyhow, are there any good video editors (that run on the phone itself) that will resample/resize/compress existing videos down to reasonable sizes for "sharing"? I now have a half a dozen that will crop, put stupid graphics on them, change the aspect ratio, let me trim them for length, etc., but none that will downsample, compress, or convert the file to a smaller format.Īnd the built-in file shrinking obviously doesn't work. ![]() So, I can, of course, copy the video to my PC, and then do whatever editing and file conversion I want, then copy it back to the phone, and finally, share it as I wish.īut that defeats the immediacy and sponenaeity of the whole exercise. ![]() It then went through the motions of compressing the video, and then tried to send it, only to fail with a message saying "cancelled, file too large". I tried to send a video I shot via text messaging, and the system said it would need to compress the video before it could be sent. Second, I've now downloaded several alleged video editors, even paying for one, and none of them seem to have any way to simply downsize an existing video. The other thread about video editors got me wondering if there is any way to successfully shrink an existing video, on the phone, so it can be sent with a text or as an email.įirst, I can't find any video editing features on my phone, either, just like in the other thread. ![]()
