One clip. A clear maximum.

How to make your video smaller

  1. Choose a preset

    Start with a target above, or open Full controls for a custom maximum and video settings.

  2. Select your video

    Choose a local file. Review the selected maximum, any resolution cap and the advice before compressing.

  3. Download and review

    Save the result and check its quality. Upload or attach it in your destination app yourself.

Teams uses cloud file storage

Teams files use Microsoft storage services and organization policies. Their file-upload ceilings are much larger than these targets, while inline recordings are a different feature. These presets prepare smaller files; they are not Teams plan limits.

Sharing permissions still matter

Download the MP4 and add it through Teams. Check that colleagues can access the shared file in your organization. Compression does not grant OneDrive or SharePoint permission and does not replace a meeting recording stored by Teams.

Questions about Microsoft Teams

Can I compress a Teams meeting recording?

If you have permission to download and process it, select the local recording here. SizeVideo Free supports up to five minutes; longer eligible inputs need SizeVideo Premium.

Will this change access to the recording?

No. Share the downloaded copy through your organization’s approved workflow and check its permissions there.

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.
