- Export/Compress
Export
Click Compress to export. The app estimates the new size before you start so you can choose the perfect balance.
Batch and presets
Group similar clips and reuse a preset to speed up workflow. Start with 1080p, then fine‑tune bitrate to hit your size target while keeping the preview sharp.
Estimate and adjust
Check the estimated output size before exporting. A single adjustment to bitrate or resolution usually avoids multiple passes.
