Start from the source file, apply only the settings you need, then review the result in the player, platform or application where it will actually be used.
What happens in your browser
The video is processed in your browser. How long that takes depends on the length and resolution of the source, the operation you ask for and the memory and processing power available on the device. Larger or more complex videos can take longer, so keep the tab open until the job has finished.
What changes in your video
Add text to a video is meant to do one specific job, not to hide a long chain of automatic changes. Work from the original file and change only what you need. The tool can handle MP4, WebM, AVI, MOV, MKV where the browser and video engine support them, so the exact result still depends on the source video and the setting you choose.
A straightforward way to use it
Start with the source video, choose the option that matches what you want to achieve, then run the processing and open the result. There is usually no benefit in changing several technical settings at once. If the first attempt is not right, go back to the source, adjust one relevant option and try again.
Formats and real-world compatibility
MP4, WebM, AVI, MOV, MKV are among the formats used by this tool, but an extension alone does not tell the whole story. Containers, video codecs, audio codecs, resolution and frame rate all affect compatibility. For an important file, test the finished video in the player, browser or service where it will actually be used.
