Add option to Compress with FFMPEG on export

Feature Request

Please add the ability to compress videos on export with low(quality+filesize), balanced, high(quality+filesize)

I was able to compress a 400MB Focusee video to 20MB with only a slight reduction in quality.

Awesome software! Thanks Focusee team.

    Thank you for your feature suggestion! Currently, we offer multiple quality options during export, and each option results in a different file size. We’d like to better understand whether the current compression results still don’t meet your needs.
    We’ll also look into the compression tools you mentioned. Thank you for your feedback—it’s very helpful for us as we continue to improve the export experience.

      Just look at the difference in filesize I was able to achieve by using an external compressor.

      Balanced from an external tool made my video 20MB. While the balanced setting on Focusee made it 400MB.

      Your compression system could use some work. Usually a well tuned FFMPEG setup does wonders. You’ll have to play around with the setting though.
