Compress Video
Shrink video files without sacrificing quality. This skill uses FFmpeg to intelligently compress videos for Web, Mobile, or Archive storage. It includes smart presets (1080p, 720p), batch processing for folders, and target file size calculations.
Features
- Smart Presets: "Web" (Balanced), "Mobile" (Small), "Archive" (High Compression), "High Quality" (Near Lossless).
- Target Size: Automatically calculates the bitrate needed to hit a specific file size (e.g., "50MB").
- Batch Processing: Compresses entire folders of videos in one go.
- Codec Choice: Supports H.264 (Compatibility), H.265/HEVC (Efficiency), and VP9 (Web).
- Resolution Scaling: Easily downscale 4K to 1080p or 720p.
This is a CLI skill. It requires the
skillsCLI to execute. Install it withnpm install -g @hasna/skills, then run the commands below.
