Supported Video Formats - MP4 to URL, MOV, AVI & More

Video uploads: free up to 100MiB; signed-in paid users up to 1GiB. Format and account limits apply.

🎬

MP4

MP4 is a container; check its video and audio codecs in the target browser. Uploading does not transcode it.

🍎

MOV

MOV may use codecs a browser cannot play. Export a compatible MP4 if playback fails.

📼

AVI

Older AVI files may need conversion before they will play in a browser.

🌐

WebM

Test WebM and its codec in the browsers used by your audience.

📦

MKV

MKV can hold several tracks; browser support and subtitle handling vary.

🎞️

MPEG / OGG / 3GP / FLV

For MPEG, OGG, 3GP or FLV, test playback first. Renaming an extension does not convert the file.

Platform Integration Guides - How to Use Video URLs

These are link-sharing workflows, not promises that third-party platforms will create an automatic video preview.

💬

Discord

Review a clip in a Discord channel.

Steps to try

  1. https://example.com/video.mp4
  2. Paste the example URL in an allowed channel and open the posted link.
💡A plain link can work even when Discord shows no playable preview.
📱

Slack

Discuss a recording inside a Slack thread.

Steps to try

  1. https://example.com/video.mp4
  2. Post the URL with a timestamp and a short description of what needs review.
💡Workspace settings may disable previews; a private channel does not make the file URL private.
🐙

GitHub

Reference a reproduction in a GitHub issue or README.

Steps to try

  1. https://example.com/video.mp4
  2. Use Markdown link syntax with the file URL and test it from the rendered issue or README.
💡A working link does not guarantee an inline player in every GitHub context.
📝

WordPress

Add a demonstration to a WordPress post.

Steps to try

  1. https://example.com/video.mp4
  2. Use a Video block or an allowed Custom HTML block with the file URL; preview the published page.
💡Editor roles or site rules may strip video markup; keep a text link as a fallback.
📚

Notion

Add a lesson to a Notion page.

Steps to try

  1. https://example.com/video.mp4
  2. Paste the URL as a link; try the embed option only if available, then open the shared page.
💡Notion page permissions do not restrict access to the public video URL.
🐦

Twitter/X

Share an external preview link on X / Twitter.

Steps to try

  1. https://example.com/video.mp4
  2. Add the URL and a description to a post, then check the published link.
💡An external link is not a native video upload; automatic playback is not guaranteed.

Video Optimization Tips - Reduce File Size Before Upload

Export a short sample and compare picture, readable text and speech before uploading the full video.

🎬

Choose the Right Format

MP4 and WebM are common options for web video. Test the codec and browser compatibility before publishing.

✅ A browser-compatible codec avoids a download-only experience.
📐

Adjust Video Resolution

For screen recordings: 1920x1080 (1080p) or 1280x720 (720p). For social media: 1080x1080 (square) or 1080x1920 (vertical). Higher resolution = larger file size.

✅ A readable lower resolution can reduce bytes without hiding interface text.
⚡

Optimize Frame Rate

Use 24-30 FPS for most content. Screen recordings can use 15 FPS. Gaming videos benefit from 60 FPS but have larger file sizes.

✅ Matching frame rate to motion avoids unnecessary frames.
🗜️

Use Efficient Compression

For MP4: Use H.264 codec with CRF 23-28. For WebM: Use VP9 or AV1 codec. Balance quality and file size with bitrate control.

✅ Compare an exported sample to choose the quality and size trade-off.
🔊

Reduce Audio Bitrate

Use 128 kbps AAC audio for voice recordings. 192 kbps for music. Lower audio bitrate significantly reduces total file size.

✅ Lower audio bitrate can save space while keeping speech intelligible.
✂️

Trim Unnecessary Content

Remove intro/outro, silence, and mistakes. Shorter videos upload faster and engage viewers more effectively.

✅ Trimming dead time makes the relevant action easier to find.
