A few examples of my results:
1gb --> 117mb (86% saved)
1.13gb --> 138mb (88% saved)
440mb --> 80mb (82% saved)
293mb --> 158mb (46% saved)
695mb --> 474mb (32% saved)

Typically it will be around 50% but it can be up to 90%.

This is from compression king

I'm not sure what that is since this software is free and reputable. I knew about the software but didn't know it was able to do this so I decided to share here as well.

Thanks for the share...+REP

It works for me.

83MB - 32MB

Thanks

Will try it out^_____^

wow..
from 250mb to 50mb..
good work guys..

I use it myself. Best so far for compression. It can only output .mp4 or .mkv though, but I don't mind.
Personally if the vids are above 1000 width I'll lower the resolution down, cause that can really help shrink the resulting file. Courses are not movies, I don't use them for pleasure, only for learning, so HQ res or not, who caress.
There are exceptions to this where a good quality is required to be able to read properly what's in the video.

I'm not sure it converts SWF files properly. I additionally use "Moyea SWF to Video Converter" for them. The only proper one I've found. If anyone is using a good SWF converter - do tell about it. It's always good to learn about alternatives.

Thanks.

The first problem I see is that my CPU (CPU Intel Core i3 550 3200 MHz) is running at a constant 100% while running Handbrake.
A 404MB MP4 file runs for an average of 19 minutes. This will cause damage to the CPU if run too long.
