How to compress video files to upload to TORSH Talent

Video files are often very large in size, and depending on your network connection, it can be difficult and time-consuming to upload these files to TORSH Talent. If you happen to have a copy of the video file on your computer, we highly recommend you compress the file to 480p resolution by downloading and using the following free, trusted service on your computer: Handbrake .

 

Once you have downloaded the Handbrake program to your desktop/laptop computer, open the program and follow the steps listed below:

  1. First click 'Open Source' and select your video.
  2. Navigate to the 'Preset' dropdown at the top of the window.
  3. Click the 'Preset' dropdown (What currently displays as 'Fast 1080p 30').
  4. A dropdown list will appear. Hover over 'General.' Another dropdown list will appear.
  5. From this second list, select 'Fast 480p 30.'
  6. Navigate to 'Browse' at the bottom and determine where you would like your newly compressed videos to download to.
  7. Lastly, click the green 'Start' button at the top.
  8. Allow the encoding/compressing process to complete. Once it is finished, you should find a new, smaller copy of your video on your computer.

 

Once you have located this compressed video copy, login to TORSH Talent on a trusted web browser on your computer (Safari, Mozilla Firefox, or Google Chrome). Then go to 'Upload' on Talent and upload your newly compressed video file.
