Community rules come first
A smaller video does not enable video posts in a community that restricts them. Check the community rules and the post composer, then choose a target for the footage you are permitted to share.

How to make your video smaller

Choose a local file. Review the selected maximum, any resolution cap and the advice before compressing.
- Download and review
Save the result and check its quality. Upload or attach it in your destination app yourself.
Duration differs by Reddit plan
Reddit currently describes 15-minute video uploads for non-Premium users and 30 minutes for Premium. Those durations are independent of file size and SizeVideo limits. This page does not assert a universal Reddit upload byte cap.
Questions about Reddit
Will compression enable a disabled video-post button?
No. Community settings, account permissions and the selected post type are separate from file size.
Can I fit a long video by compressing harder?
Compression keeps the duration. Trim it separately if it exceeds the posting or SizeVideo duration limit.
Can I change a preset?
Yes. Full controls opens the normal size ruler, custom maximum, resolution, frame rate and audio settings. Switching controls keeps the selected file. Presets set a maximum; the actual result can be smaller.
Will every video reach this size?
No. Very small targets can be unsuitable or fail for a long or detailed clip. Read the advice, try lower resolution or choose a larger maximum. Compression does not trim video or bypass a destination’s content and account rules.
