Common video formats such as mp4 and mov are supported, however note uploaded videos are not re-encoded, so it’s best to use a widely supported codec to ensure that the video will load correctly when viewing in different browsers.

Outline is not a storage service, it is recommend to only upload small videos that will load quickly. We recommend using a dedicated video host such as YouTube or Vimeo for large videos.
