Hi,
Normally we don't/can't compress video files, we convert from one format to other format to get smaller size. Some formats can come out very close the source (quality) some can not handle this and causing lower quality. There are many free and commercial software around such as this one:

To compress video, we need to use a video compressor. Here is a powerful video compressor and a step by step guide on how to reduce the file size of various video with almost no loss of video quali.... It is quite helpful for me.

Sorry to bother you man, but you seem to know much about video compression and conversion is that right? i have a problem about video conversion output size and need to know if you can offer me a solution? Yesterday, i found this article about video conversion when i was searching on the internet looking for some free video converter , it asked me to download their HD video converter to convert MP4 . In this article, as you can see from ( http://www.videoconverterfactory.com/tips/hd-crack.html ) it mentions that the file size can be reduced after conversion . But after downloading the program and converted my MP4 video file to AVI video format, the video size got much bigger, around 35 percent larger than the original mp4 video while the output quality still sucked. I did not change resolution nor frame rate and bit rate. Do you have any idea about how i can solve it?

As I know, most of the video converters can compress a video into a smaller size when converting a video. Here I would like to share you with a video converter which is free and maybe it can help you do this work. Here it is: https://www.videosolo.com/free-video-converter/
