share (large) video
When I try to open the iOS share sheet for a large video it can take a very (too) long time for the share sheet to pop up. The app keeps spinning in ‘preparing’, this most likely due to it is downloading the full-res original, as smaller videos are fine. Is there a way to tell Immich to provide a reduced version of such video?

If this ticket can be closed you can use the /close command, and re-open it later if needed.@Alex Tran can you shed some light on this? It’s not a big, but seems related to large (huge) videos that need to be loaded/buffeted
no, there is not, right now it will use the original file
So for the moment I should transcode my big videos into a more suitable size then
What would uploading do? If I use the cli to upload instead of using an external library?
Wondering the same. Press share on android at a video it takes pretty long time to be able to process it in for example WhatsApp. I guess it's downloading what takes long.
Will transcoding speed up the preparation.? Which version is it going to download to share
