Introduction
When you're creating on Xperiencify, you have the option to upload your video content directly to us (.mp4 or .mov files 2 GB size limit- we recommend compressing with Handbrake).
You can also use an external video hosting platform, like Youtube, or Vimeo.
It's important to us that you have plenty of options, and we've worked hard to support as many formats as we can!

Encoding Your Videos for Xperiencify
If you decide to upload your videos to XP, here's our advice for how to encode your video for best results with us.
First, don't save your video file in any "weird" formats or with any weird codecs. It's always safest to use your video tool's most general output settings or templates. The best formats to use are: MP4, M4V, MOV. (Never AVI or FLV!)
We recommend encoding your videos in H.264 whenever possible
Avoid "single-target" formatting -- for example, your tool might give you the option to create the best video for iPhone only. Don't do that
Export with multi-pass processing if you have the time. This creates higher quality videos by encoding your video content TWICE, reducing the incidence of video artifacts & providing the most benefit to videos that have areas of high motion
Those tips should help you get a great quality video file that we can process successfully!
