Facebook gives you a great place to share videos with friends, family, and others. However, uploading large video files to Facebook can be frustrating. You may see an error message about exceeding Facebook's file size limit. Thankfully, there are several methods to compress your videos for Facebook. You can use them to make your videos smaller to share on Facebook without losing significant quality.
Before diving into detailed compression solutions, it's crucial to know Facebook's video upload specifications.
The recommended Facebook video file size is under 100MB for faster uploads and smoother playback. The max file size is 4GB. Facebook accepts videos in the MP4 and MOV formats. MP4 is generally preferred.
The recommended resolution to upload on Facebook is 1280×720 pixels. Facebook also supports other resolutions, such as 1080p, 4K, and more. However, when you upload a high-resolution video to Facebook, it might automatically downscale it. Facebook is compatible with a wide range of aspect ratios like 16:9 (landscape), 9:16 (portrait), and 1:1 (square).
Facebook supports a long video length of up to 240 minutes (4 hours). However, when you plan to upload a video to Facebook, you’d better shrink it to 2 minutes for optimal results. Shorter videos are more popular on Facebook.
Large video files can lead to slow upload times on Facebook. Thankfully, Aiseesoft Video Converter Ultimate offers a powerful Video Compressor tool to help you shrink your videos while maintaining good quality. It supports many input and output video formats. You can handily compress videos to fit Facebook's requirements.
