Recommended Facebook Video Specs

Facebook supports videos created with specific requirements, called video specifications. When you want to upload a video to Facebook, first understand Facebook's video specifications, and then you'll know what format you need to convert your video to.

In fact, Facebook accepts most common video file types, including .3gp, .avi, .mp4, .mkv, .mov, .mpeg4, .wmv, etc. But there are more technical specifications to follow if you want to upload videos to Facebook easily. Below are the best recommended video specs for Facebook.

  • Video format: MP4 format with H264 video and AAC stereo audio
  • Video dimensions: 1080p or less
  • Aspect ratio: 16:9 (Landscape) to 9:16 (Portrait)
  • Length: less than 240 minutes long.
  • Size: up to 10 GB

Knowing the specifications, you can now convert your video to fit Facebook readily.

Wrap-up

There are format limitations for uploading videos to Facebook. But you can use a video converter to convert your videos to Facebook supported formats, or you can directly use a dedicated Facebook video format converter to convert videos for Facebook uploading. You'll benefit from either way, so pick your preferred method and start your work.
