FeatherCutCompress a video to 50 MB
Drop a file and FeatherCut picks the resolution and bitrate so the result fits in 50 MB. That is Discord's Nitro Basic limit and a common cap for upload forms.

Cheat sheet
How much video fits in 50 MB
| Video length | Resolution | Video bitrate |
|---|---|---|
| 30 s | 1080p | 13 293 kb/s |
| 1 min | 1080p | 6 582 kb/s |
| 3 min | 720p | 2 108 kb/s |
| 5 min | 720p | 1 214 kb/s |
| 10 min | 540p | 575 kb/s |
Approximate, for a 16:9 video at 30 fps. FeatherCut never upscales, so a lower-resolution source stays as it is.
Tips
Getting the most out of 50 MB
- The shorter the video, the better it looks: the same size is spread over fewer seconds.
- Audio takes space too. At small sizes FeatherCut lowers the audio bitrate first, before saving on the picture.
- Came out slightly too big? The tool automatically compresses harder until the file fits.

FAQ
Common questions
Can I change the target size?
Yes. This page sets 50 MB, but you can type any number in the Custom field.
How long a video fits in 50 MB?
See the table above. Shorter videos get a higher resolution, longer ones are saved lower so the picture stays clean.
What if my video is already under 50 MB?
FeatherCut detects it and will not compress it needlessly.
