Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to install anything on Windows?
No. The compressor runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly. Chrome or Edge are recommended for best performance.
How fast is compression on Windows?
A modern Windows PC processes about 25-50MB per minute. A 200MB video takes 4-8 minutes.
Can I use this on Windows 7?
Windows 7 browsers don't support modern WebAssembly well. Upgrade to Windows 10/11 for best results.
Will Windows Defender flag the output file?
No. The output is a standard MP4 video file. Windows Defender does not flag video files.
