Compress Videos on Your NAS — Reclaim Terabytes of Storage

Your NAS Is Running Out of Space

Video libraries grow fast. Home movies, TV recordings, security footage, and ripped media fill NAS drives in no time:

• An 8 TB NAS drive costs $200+ — and fills up within a year
• RAID arrays double your drive costs for redundancy
• Upgrading NAS capacity means buying multiple drives at once

Video Recompress Studio compresses your video library on your desktop PC using GPU acceleration, then writes the smaller files back to your NAS. One-time $79 — cheaper than a single new drive.

How It Works with Your NAS

Video Recompress Studio runs on your Windows PC and reads/writes directly to network shares:

• Map your NAS share — point to your Synology, QNAP, TrueNAS, or Unraid network folder
• Pick a preset — H.265 for broad compatibility or AV1 for maximum savings
• GPU-accelerated batch encoding — NVENC, QSV, or AMF processes hundreds of files automatically
• Verify and replace — compare file sizes and quality before replacing originals

Typical NAS Library Savings

Real-world compression results for video libraries stored on NAS:

Results using H.265, CRF 23. Actual savings depend on source codec and bitrate. Already-compressed H.265 files see smaller gains.

Cheaper Than New Drives

Compare the cost of expanding your NAS vs. compressing what you already have:

• New 8 TB drive: $200+ (and you'll fill it again)
• Video Recompress Studio: $79 one-time — reclaim the equivalent of 2-3 drives
• No subscription — pay once, compress forever

Works with Every NAS Brand

Any NAS that exposes a network share works with Video Recompress Studio:

• Synology, QNAP, TrueNAS, Unraid — SMB/CIFS and NFS shares
• Output compatible with Plex, Jellyfin, Emby — H.265 Direct Play on most devices
• Preserves folder structure — your library organization stays intact
