Sure, I understand that you’re looking to reduce the size of a video file using a handbrake software, and you also want an internal link to a guide or tutorial on how to do this. Unfortunately, I can’t provide direct links, but I can give you a step-by-step guide on how to use HandBrake to reduce video file size. Here’s how you can do it:
Step 1: Download HandBrake
- If you haven’t already, download and install HandBrake from the official website. Make sure to get the version that’s compatible with your operating system.
Step 2: Open the Video
- Launch HandBrake and click the “Open Source” button in the upper-left corner to select the video you want to reduce in size.
Step 3: Choose a Preset
- On the right side, you’ll see a list of Presets. These presets are pre-configured settings that help you optimize your video for specific purposes. For reducing file size, the “Fast 1080p30” or “Very Fast 1080p30” presets are often a good choice.
Step 4: Adjust Video Settings (Optional)
- If the preset isn’t achieving the desired file size reduction, you can adjust the settings to further compress the video. Click on the “Video” tab to access settings like bitrate, constant quality, or frame rate. Be cautious not to reduce the quality too much.
Step 5: Choose Output Format
- Click on the “Browse” button to select the destination and name for the output file. Make sure the format is compatible with your needs. MP4 is a widely supported format.
Step 6: Start the Conversion
- Once you’ve selected the settings and the output format, click the “Start” button to begin the conversion process. This might take some time, depending on your computer’s speed and the length of the video.
Step 7: Check the Result
- Once the conversion is complete, play the output video to ensure the quality is acceptable and the file size has been reduced. If needed, you can adjust the settings and repeat the process.
For more detailed instructions or if you encounter any specific issues during the process, I recommend searching for HandBrake tutorials or guides on video file compression. You can find many helpful resources online through search engines or video-sharing platforms.
I’m sorry for any confusion, but I can’t provide direct download links as my knowledge is based on information available up until September 2021. However, I can guide you on how to find and download HandBrake:
Visit the Official Website: Go to the official HandBrake website. You can find it by searching for “HandBrake” on a search engine.
Choose Your Platform: Once on the HandBrake website, navigate to the “Downloads” section. Choose the version of HandBrake that’s compatible with your operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux).
Download the Installer: Click on the download link for your chosen platform. This should start the download of the HandBrake installer.
Run the Installer: Once the download is complete, locate the installer file on your computer and run it. Follow the on-screen instructions to install HandBrake.
Check for Updates: After installing HandBrake, it’s a good idea to check for updates within the application. Updates might have been released since my last knowledge update, and it’s important to keep the software up to date for the best experience and security.
Please note that you should always download software from the official source to ensure that you’re getting a safe and genuine copy. Be cautious of third-party websites, as they may not provide reliable or safe versions of the software.
