Compression on MP4 inserted into Storyline
I am trying to publish a course with an inserted MP4. When I choose 'None' for compression the zip file is over 1,000 MB (our LMS max is 750 MB). When I choose 'Automatic' for compression the zip ...

Compression 'None' means storyline will copy the original imported video without recompress into the zip
if you do not use this setting, Storyline always adjusts the video to the dimensions of the slide.
e.g. slide 960x 540, video 1920x1080
- Compression 'None' -> video 1920 x 1080
- Compression 'Automatic' -> video 960 x 540 + the video settings (-> publish settings)
best practice for size/quality: compress the video outside storyline to the final data size and use 'None' + 'Static'

Thanks for this info. It's good to know how much compression happens with Storyline's automatic setting. I think I need to compress more before putting in Storyline. I'm using Premiere Pro but having trouble getting a smaller size there without video degradation.

how long (in minutes) are the videos in your course together?
