I like Flixier because I can use it anywhere I go and I don`t need a lot of computer requirements but great internet connection. I like how fast it is when it comes to rendering videos and still have the opportunity to continue or start another project while waiting. I appreciate the continuous updates and adjustments because it is necessary for a video editing tool.

My main criteria for an editor was that the interface is familiar and most importantly that the renders were in the cloud and super fast. Flixier more than delivered in both. I've now been using it daily to edit Facebook videos for my 1M follower page.

I found the user interface to be intuitive. I really love that you can work on other projects while a large project is exporting. The sound enhancements were very helpful to get rid of background noises and increase the quality. I would recommend this program to anyone, it just works. No crashes or buggy. For being a browser based program it really processes videos surprisingly fast.

What I like most about Flixier is the flexibility to edit the captions, both in terms of the text and the time where it starts and finish showing it. It gives you full control.

This online free program was extremely easy to use, implement, and integrate into my 9-12th grade tech classes. The projects turned out great and were easy to export. I liked having multiple ways to upload pictures. The software was also easy to understand.

Frequently
Asked
Questions

Am I losing quality when converting a MKV video file?

The quality loss when compressing an MKV file depends a lot on the settings you choose and if you are trying an aggressive compression or not. When reducing the file size by about 30% video quality is minimal but trying a higher compression might be visible in some cases. Still, with most being shared on social media and watched on phones it takes a large amount of compression to make a video look noticeably bad.

Can I reduce the mkv file size using an online video editor?

Yes, you can compress the size of an MKV file with an online video editor like Flixier. First make your edits and export your video. Flixier will automatically save it as an MP4 file which usually comes with a smaller file size. Still, if you want to compress files even more head over to our video compressor.

Yes, with Flixier you can compress MKV files for free, just upload them into our compression tool, apply the settings that you want based on how small you want to make the file and press the “Compress video” button. When ready you can download the file or edit it with our online video editor.
