Upload Your Videos To Facebook

In past articles, we have already provided helpful hints on how to optimize videos to upload them to different social media platforms.

With the help of this information, you were perfectly prepared to optimize your video for uploading to Facebook or other social media sites. However, you still had to manually add the information or restraints when, e.g., using a video converter. Now, there is an easier and much faster way!

Disable Audio Track

By default, this option is unchecked. By checking it, you can remove the audio from a video.

This can be quite handy since many people don’t know how to disable auto play for videos in their Facebook settings. Thus, when scrolling past a video in your timeline, they just start playing and blaring sounds or music. If your video works well without the audio, all you need is one click to remove it.

 

Cut Video

If you only want to upload part of a video and not the whole clip, you can also easily cut the part out of a longer video.

Simply state the starting point and endpoint of your clip in the following format: HH:MM:SS
