Vidalytics has a file size limit of 8GB, this is considered enough to upload a large video without any problem. Nevertheless there might be a few times where a videos surpasses this file size limit.
In that case if after exporting your video, it is more than 8GB, we recommend you use a compression tool to make it smaller.
There are a number of tools out there, but we like to use a free software called HandBrake.
Compressing a video using HandBrake is quite simple. Simply follow these steps to do so.
1. Load your Video: Open HandBrake and load your video, by clicking on the 'Source' button, at the top left:
2. Optimize the Video: Once your video is loaded, simply click on the 'Web Optimized' checkmark, under 'Output Settings':
Note: If you do not want to overwrite your file, make sure to change the name of it under 'Destination', so you do not make any changes to the original video.
3. Compress the Video: Finally, click on 'Start' and wait for the video to process. This should reduce your file size considerably, without messing with your video quality too much.
And you are done! You should now be able to upload your video to your Vidalytics account.
