Frequently asked questions
Does Discord compress videos?
Although Discord automatically compresses videos uploaded to its platform, its default settings offer limited compression options.
Many creators use an online Discord converter tool like Captions to reduce a video file before uploading it to Discord. Online video editors give you more control, allowing you to decrease the file size while maintaining resolution quality.
How does video compression enhance the Discord experience?
Captions’ Discord file compressor allows you to optimize your video size for the Discord platform.
Smaller videos upload faster and are easier to share with other Discord users than larger files. Quicker and more efficient delivery improves engagement and gives you more ways to interact with people on the platform.
What’s the Discord video file size limit?
The Discord file size limit is 25MB for those using its free service — you can’t upload or share media to a chat or channel if the file size exceeds 25MB.
You can increase the file size limit if you purchase a Discord subscription. Upload files up to 50MB with Nitro Basic, or spend a little more for Nitro and increase the file size cap to 500MB.
