The result: lighter files, faster uploads and loads, and organized media management with scan, multi-select, and a progress bar - all from the site admin.

FAQ
Do I need encoding tools on the server?
Not required. If available, choose server mode (fast even for large files). If not, use browser mode (Chrome recommended, up to about 80MB per file).
Does the format change?
Output is always MP4. If the source is already MP4 it stays MP4 and gets smaller; otherwise it is converted to MP4.
What happens to the original?
Before replacement, an automatic backup is saved under uploads (the plugin backup folder).
What can I do without a license?
Unlimited scan. Without a license you can compress one video; additional videos require a PRO license.
