Bitrate Calculator

Estimate output size from bitrate and duration, or back into bitrate from a target file size.

Exceeds platform limits

Video bitrate 6,000 kbps is above the recommended maximum for Instagram (3,500).

Try 3,500 kbps → ≈ 361.0 MB

Size ≈ duration × total bitrate × (1 + overhead). Codec factor scales size for H.265 / AV1 / VP9 / ProRes at comparable quality.

bpp = video bitrate ÷ (width × height × fps). Below 0.05 looks blocky; above 0.2 is usually wasted bitrate.

If your encoder cannot sustain the needed bitrate, lower the target size or shorten the duration.
