Browser Workspace Now Supports Files Up to 4GB

VideoRepair's browser workspace now supports files up to 4GB per video. This update is aimed at people working with longer recordings, higher-bitrate exports, or larger clips from phones, GoPro cameras, dashcams, and screen recordings.

Before this change, some users hit the browser-side file size ceiling before they could properly inspect or repair the damaged clip. The new limit gives the local repair workflow more room to handle real-world files without forcing you to split them first.

What changed#

• The in-browser workspace now accepts files up to 4GB each.
• Help and pricing copy have been updated so the new limit is visible before upload.
• The upload and repair flow still runs locally in your browser.

Who this helps most#

This update is most useful if you regularly work with:

• longer dashcam segments
• high-bitrate GoPro or action camera clips
• larger phone recordings
• exported MP4 or MOV files that still fit the current browser workflow

What did not change#

This is a capacity update, not a codec expansion.

• The workflow is still focused on MP4-family containers.
• The best results still come from files where the media payload exists and the main issue is damaged metadata or playback structure.
• A 0-byte file is still not recoverable.

Why this matters#

Many corrupted files are large precisely because they contain real video data. A higher browser-side size ceiling means fewer users have to guess whether the file is repairable before they can even test it.
