**Video upload specifications: **


  • Format: MP4, MOV, animated GIF

  • Duration: 10-minute max per uploaded clip

  • Maximum filesize: 2 GB

  • Maximum resolution: 4K (1080p is the maximum resolution Lumen5 can produce, so 4K uploads will be converted to 1080p. HDR files are not supported.)

  • Minimum height: 360px (480px recommended)

  • Frame Rate: 30FPS max (we don't currently support 60fps)

Lumen5 may support other codecs, but we recommend H.264 and AAC. H.264 supports 8bit colour depth. We don't support alpha channels, green screens/chromakey, or masks.


If your video is in an unsupported format, we recommend converting it to MP4 format using an online conversion tool such as this.
