It is a container, usually holding H.264 or H.265 video with AAC audio, and it plays almost everywhere. The hard part is getting it to someone: a few minutes of 1080p already outgrows the 20 to 25 MB attachment limit of most email services, and chat apps recompress whatever you send. Upload the MP4 to Link in Seconds and the original file streams in the recipient's browser from a short link, with a seek bar that jumps anywhere and fullscreen on any device. Drop your file here Drop several at once and they become one album link Files up to 250 MB free· Free: every feature, 50 links, up to 250 MB · [Pro: unlimited links, bigger uploads](https://linkinseconds.com/pricing) To share an MP4 that is too big for email, upload it to Link in Seconds and send the link. The original video streams in the recipient's browser with no download first, no recompression and no account. Viewers can skip ahead instantly. Free files go up to 250 MB, Pro up to 500 MB.

Part of our guide to [File viewers](https://linkinseconds.com/viewer). ## How it works - 1 ### Upload the original export Sign in with Google and upload the MP4 as exported, with no shrinking for email. The bytes go straight to storage: up to 250 MB per file on Free, 500 MB on Pro and 500 MB on Lifetime. - 2 ### A quick safety scan runs Videos are checked automatically right after upload. Your link starts playing as soon as the scan finishes, usually within a few minutes, and you can copy it straight away. - 3 ### Send the link Paste it into an email, a chat or a project tool. The viewer presses play, and the seek bar works from the first second. ## Seek anywhere without waiting The file is served in byte ranges, so dragging the seek bar to minute 14 fetches minute 14, not everything before it. Long recordings such as webinars, lectures and product walkthroughs stay watchable on a phone connection. ## Original quality, no recompression Chat apps and social platforms re-encode uploads to save bandwidth, which blurs fine detail and the text in screen recordings. We store and play the exact file you uploaded, so 1080p or 4K footage looks the way you exported it. ## Plays inline on iPhone and Android The player uses the browser's own video controls: play, volume, fullscreen and, where the browser offers them, playback speed and picture-in-picture. On iPhone the video plays inside the page instead of jumping to a separate player, and portrait clips are letterboxed so the controls stay visible. ## See how much of it they watched Analytics record plays and how far into the video each viewer got, so you can tell whether a client watched the whole demo or stopped after thirty seconds. ## Good to know about MP4 playback H.265 (HEVC) doesn't play everywhere MP4 files encoded with H.265, which some newer phones and cameras use for 4K, need a browser with HEVC support. If a viewer sees a playback error, re-export as H.264, which plays in every major browser. Size caps per plan Single files are capped at 250 MB on Free, 500 MB on Pro and 500 MB on Lifetime. For longer footage, export at a lower bitrate or split the video into parts. View-only is a deterrent Turning downloads off hides the download button, but anyone can still record what plays on their own screen. Don't rely on it for footage that must never leave your hands. ## Frequently asked questions Still stuck? [Ask us directly](https://linkinseconds.com/contact) and a real person answers. Upload it here and paste the link into your email instead of attaching the file. The recipient clicks and watches in the browser, and nothing counts against their inbox size. No. We don't transcode or compress anything. The file you uploaded is the file that plays, at its original resolution and bitrate. It is almost always the codec: the file uses H.265 or an unusual audio track the viewer's browser can't decode. H.264 video with AAC audio is the safe choice, and most editors offer it as an H.264 or web export preset. Yes. Portrait clips are letterboxed to fit the screen, so the whole frame and the controls stay visible on desktop and on mobile. No. They open the link in Safari, Chrome, Firefox or Edge and press play. Only you sign in, to upload. ## Keep reading [Which way should you send this file?
