Step-by-Step Guide to Compress Your Video with VideoPad

Here's how you can compress your video without sacrificing quality using VideoPad:

  1. Original Video Size: First, open your video file in VideoPad to check its original size.

  2. Select Export Settings: Navigate to the export options within VideoPad. Choose H.264 as your codec. The H.264 codec is renowned for its ability to compress video files effectively while maintaining high quality.

  3. Adjust Compression Settings: Tweak the settings to ensure that the quality of the video remains nearly the same. This includes setting the resolution, bitrate, and other influencing factors appropriately.

  4. **Export the Video:** Once you've adjusted all necessary settings, proceed with the export process.

  5. Compare Sizes: After exporting, compare the original and compressed video sizes. You should notice a substantial decrease in size without any perceivable quality loss.

  6. Review Quality: Inspect the compressed video quality. In most cases, the video quality remains intact, even though there's a significant reduction in file size. It's important to mention that during the recording of this tutorial, some lagging occurs, which is due to the recording issue and not the compression process itself.
