I have dozens of one-hour screen recordings from one year of Zoom Classes - almost 100GB of data. I want to minimize their weight and store them in a rarely accessed archive of my college time. How to achieve a small file size?

  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • HandBrake

    HandBrake's main development repository

    Handbrake is great for transcoding large video files, especially raw recordings.

  • lossless-cut

    The swiss army knife of lossless video/audio editing

    I'd also recommend trimming the videos before you do any editing with them. It will be faster to cut what you need and then have it for converting, storing, etc. LosslessCut is great and you can use it pretty fast with just the keyboard, so it will help with your tons of files.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc. PHP, ASP.NET Core, and Node.js.
