At this point, the compressed video appears as an email attachment, and you can email the video file at any time. Meanwhile, you can right-click and select Save Attachment to save the video to your computer.

But iMovie doesn’t support the video formats supported by older players of Windows such as RMVB and MKV, so they need to be converted to MOV and MP4 by a video converter software.

Method 3: Create a Compressed File

The most common method of compressing videos is to convert the video files into compressed files. Both Windows and Mac users can use this method, and they need to unzip the compressed files before watching the video.

But some users may encounter that the decompressed videos are damaged and cannot be played normally. So we advise you to use the first two methods to compress videos for email first.

Conclusion

In addition to the three methods mentioned above, you can also upload a video to OneDrive or Google Drive and share the link for others to watch or download. However, if the video file is too large, the upload time will belong. So if you want to email your video to someone else easily and quickly, the best way is to use Bitwar Video Converter to compress videos for email.
