Step-by-Step Guide on How to Reduce the Size of AVI Videos

Step 1 Add your source AVI videos

Click the Document icon to browse your file folder to select the AVI files you want to reduce the size or use the simple drag-and-drop way to directly add them to the primary interface.

Note: Wondershare Video Converter Ultimate also supports batch converting. Namely, you can import multiple files at once. All you need is to select one file and hold down Ctrl while selecting more.

Step 2 Select AVI to Small Size

Click the Setting icon to expand the output format list choose Video > AVI and select another resolution (except the original one) on the right. Then click the editing icon on the right, and you'll get a pop-up Setting window, just hit Small Size and click Create to confirm.

Now you can view the estimated file size of reduced AVI video and compare it with the original one, just as the screenshot shows.

Tips: Aside from the above-mentioned way to reduce AVI file size, you can also consider converting AVI to FLV or other small-sized video formats, or adjusting the video parameters manually. To do that, you can pick your desired resolution, bit rate, frame rate, encoder, etc. in the Settings window. However, setting lower parameters will also produce lower quality videos, so you should achieve a balance without losing too much quality.

Step 3 Export a new AVI video

When you're satisfied with the AVI size and video quality, simply hit Convert or Start All to start reducing AVI size. This program is highly boosted with Wondershare leading APEXTRANS™ technology, so you will get reduced AVI files very soon. Also, you can easily tell the remaining time from the progress bar.

When it finishes, click the folder-like icon at the bottom to get the reduced AVI file. Now you may upload to your website or included in the email to share with friends. If you plan to burn the reduced AVI file to a DVD disk like D5 or D9, just go to the DVD primary window and burn it to DVD with free and nice templates in minutes.
