It can carry lossless RAW footage, which makes the file size larger than other formats like MP4 or FLV.

Click the format image on the right side of the program. Go to the Video category and select “H265 for MP4” or “H265 for MKV” as the output profile.
Tips. VP9 is also available. Learn the one-stop solution to VP9 video encoding >>
Way 2 – Lower video resolution, bitrate, or frame rate
Click the Parameter settings button and head to Video Settings. Then, choose a resolution lower than the original, e.g. 1080P to 720P. You can also convert the bitrate, or frame rate to lower the size of your MXF files. When you finish the settings, click OK to save your changes.
Way 3 – Compress multiple MXF files in bulk
This MXF compressor offers a batch compression button. You can use it to compress multiple MXF files at one go. Just hit on the button and select a compression ratio. Note that the smaller the file size, the poorer the video quality.
Way 4 – Cut off unwanted parts of the video
Another way to reduce the video size is to remove unnecessary segments, like credits and ads. Press the “scissors” icon below the video you want to cut. Then drag the sliders on the timeline and click Trim to save the needed parts. Once done, click the OK button.
Click the bottom triangle button to specify an output folder. All set now; press Run to export the final files. The process will be completed soon.
