How to compress a video to 10 MB

  1. 1

    Drop in the video that is over the limit.

  2. 2

    There is nothing to configure: Flippy measures the clip's length and computes the exact bitrate that fits 10 MB, with a reserve for audio and container overhead.

  3. 3

    Download an MP4 that lands under the 10 MB bar, ready to send.

Why compress to 10 MB here

Exact-size math, no guessing

Flippy measures your clip's duration and computes the one bitrate that fills 10 MB: no compress-check-repeat loop, no preset roulette.

A real safety margin

The encode targets about 6% under the cap and reserves 96 kbps for audio and container overhead, so a file aimed at 10 MB actually clears a 10 MB limit.

A sensible resolution cap

Output tops out at 720p, because spreading a 10 MB budget across 4K pixels makes every one of them equally bad. Fewer, better pixels win at this size.

No watermark, no signup

Free for everyday use, MP4 out, and both files delete themselves from our servers within an hour.

The bitrate math behind the 10 MB button

File size is bitrate times duration: there is no other lever. Flippy converts your 10 MB budget into kilobits, takes 6% off the top for container overhead, hands 96 kbps to the audio, and gives the video stream every kilobit that remains.

A 10 MB budget buys about 80 seconds of decent-looking 720p video. Discord's cap fits a solid highlight; it does not fit a whole match, and no encoder settings change that.

The fix for a long clip is length, not settings: trim to the part that matters, then compress. Sixty good-looking seconds beat five minutes of mush every time.

Questions people ask

How does Flippy hit exactly 10 MB?

Discord now allows 10 MB uploads on the free tier: this page squeezes your clip just under the bar. We divide your size budget by the clip's duration to get the precise bitrate, reserve a slice for audio and container overhead, and encode once to fit.

What happens to quality at 10 MB?

It depends entirely on length: a 30-second clip at 10 MB looks great, a 10-minute one won't; that's physics, not the tool. For long videos, trim first, then compress.
