Video compression option greyed out - did not edit in Storyline

Hi, 

The option for uncompressed video is greyed out. It is a separate MP4 I uploaded and haven't touched it with any Storyline editing tools as suggested in another article.

The video as-is is extremely blurry when imported into SL.

    Still issues with this...we use H.265 now which is a better standard with better built-in compression and Storyline's compressor destroys the quality when pubslishing because we can't turn off this garbage.

      H.265 is not playable on all current browser - because it's not free to use

      If Storyline does not transcode the video, not all of your learners will be able to see the video.

      H265 also needs newer and better hardware to play in browsers that support the codec
