What is Discord's file size limit?

Discord's free tier limits file uploads to 25MB. Nitro Basic subscribers can upload files up to 50MB, and Nitro subscribers get up to 500MB per file. This tool has presets for all three tiers.

What are the best settings for Discord video?

For most gameplay clips and short videos, use 720p resolution with medium quality. This gives a good balance between visual quality and file size. For longer videos, you may need to reduce to 480p to stay under 25MB.

Why does my compressed video look blurry on Discord?

Discord applies its own re-encoding to uploaded videos. To get the best result, compress to just under the limit (e.g., 24MB for free tier) using MP4 format with H.264 codec. Avoid compressing too aggressively — medium quality usually looks fine after Discord's processing.

Can I compress a long gameplay clip for Discord?

Yes, but longer videos require more compression to fit under the size limit, which reduces quality. For clips over 2 minutes, consider trimming to the best moments first, or reduce the resolution to 480p. Discord Nitro's 500MB limit gives much more room for longer clips.

Does this tool work with Discord mobile?

Yes! After compressing your video in the browser, download it to your phone and share it via the Discord mobile app. The tool works on any modern mobile browser including Chrome and Safari on iOS and Android.
