Will my files get smaller?

It depends on how they were recorded. Real clips from our tests, H.265 at the default quality on an NVIDIA GPU:

Old camera formats: the biggest savings
DV tape (PAL) −96 %
Pocket camera, Motion JPEG −92 %
Phone and camera video: a third to two thirds smaller
Phone video, 720p −65 %
Drone, 1440p −48 %
Wedding camera, 1080p −40 %
GoPro, 1080p −31 %
Already compressed: little or nothing, never bigger
Web video, 720p −8 %
Travel video, 1080p −5 %
Timelapse, 1440p original kept
SD TV episode original kept
The app checks every result. When a file would come out bigger than its source, the original is kept, so a batch never makes a folder larger.

Measured with VideoRecompress Studio in September 2026 on a Ryzen 9 3900X with an RTX 3080. Bar length = size left after compression.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will compression reduce video quality?

No. VideoRecompress Studio uses perceptual quality settings (CRF) that preserve visual quality while reducing file size. Most users cannot see any difference between the original and compressed version.

What codecs are supported?

H.264, H.265/HEVC, AV1 and VP9. Encoding runs on the graphics card with NVIDIA NVENC, Intel QSV or AMD AMF; on an RTX 3080, H.265 encoded 8–17× faster than on a Ryzen 9 3900X processor.

How much space can I save?

It depends on your footage. On our 11-clip test set (phone, GoPro, drone, timelapse, lecture, wedding, DV and web video), H.265 cut 254.9 MB to 128.4 MB (−50 %) on an NVIDIA GPU and to 138.1 MB (−46 %) on the CPU. Single clips saved anything from nothing to 96 %: a file that is already efficient is kept as it is, and an old DV tape shrank the most. No file came out bigger. The app shows estimated savings before you start.

Does it work with large files?

Yes. VideoRecompress Studio handles files of any size. Batch-process entire folders with parallel workers for maximum throughput.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Free trial with no time limit: your first 10 files convert with no watermark; after that files get a watermark and a 10-minute cap. Buying removes both. No account or credit card required.
