Stay under RepostClip’s 50 MB upload limit and platform DM/Discord ceilings using Compact encode tiers, pack target_mb, or Bitrate Optimizer — without inventing tiny-pack doorway pages.

Tools in this guide
RepostClip enforces a 50 MB upload ceiling for VPS-honest jobs. Separately, Discord, email, and some creator workflows need 8–25 MB deliverables. Hit the product ceiling first so the job runs; then apply Compact tiers or target_mb for the destination ceiling.
Shorts Upload Pack and Reels / TikTok Pack expose encode_tier (Quality / Balanced / Compact) and optional target_mb. Compact reduces canvas/bitrate aggression inside the same indexed pack URL — no tiny sibling landing. Pair with vertical export settings when you still need 9:16 and −11 LUFS.
When Platform Readiness already passes and you only need a smaller MP4, open Bitrate Optimizer, pick a target MB (for example 8, 12, 16, 25), and re-encode. Prefer this over re-running a full pack that would change loudness or canvas you already trust.
Aggressive MB caps introduce blockiness on motion and fine text. If captions matter, prefer Caption Safe Margins + a moderate size target over crushing bitrate until glyphs smear. Verify the download on phone before publishing.
FAQ
Each job accepts up to 50 MB. Masters above that fail at upload — downscale, Compact tier, or Bitrate Optimizer on a local export first, then re-upload.
Use optional target_mb on Shorts, Reels/TikTok, and other packs when you already need that platform canvas and loudness in the same job. Use Bitrate Optimizer alone when canvas and loudness are already correct and only file size must drop.
Yes. Quality / Balanced / Compact encode tiers (and optional MB caps) deepen the live pack workspaces. Separate pack_*_tiny landings are doorway risk and are not shipped.
No. Size caps solve upload and transfer limits. Aspect, duration, and loudness still need readiness or the matching pack. Shrinking a landscape master does not make it Shorts-ready.
