Converting .mov files to make smaller?

@glassharmonica‌ , these are the forms the video can be in:

.m4v, .mov, .mp4, .wmv, .flv, .asf, .mpeg, .mpg, .mkv

Here are some slideroom instructions that I just found:

If you do not have access to video production software or do not wish to use it, you can use MPEG Streamclip . You can then open your video in MPEG Streamclip and from the “File Menu”, select “Export MPEG-4…”. The options as they are by default should compress the video enough, so you can simply click the “Make MP4” button (or press return). If you find that the file is too compressed or not small enough once it is done, the “Quality” slider on the top of the options screen will allow you to make it larger or smaller to get the proper ratio of quality and size.

@StringPop‌ , thank you for the suggestion. My son can take a look at both of these methods and see if he can get one to work. The biggest thing is not to compromise the sound quality.
