Does OneUp compress or downscale videos?

For all social networks: OneUp does not compress or downscale videos as long as the video bitrate is less than or equal to 25 Mbps.

For videos with a video bitrate over 25 Mbps, the bitrate will be automatically reduced to under 25 Mbps (otherwise it will fail to publish via most social networks' APIs).

In addition, for Instagram and Snapchat only: If the video height is less than or equal to 1080 pixels, no compression or downscaling will happen.

However, if the video height is greater than 1080 pixels, OneUp will automatically reduce the height to 1080px to meet the requirements of Instagram and Snapchat's APIs.
