Solved! Full Guide on How to Fix Blurry Videos Sent to Me

Part 1: Why is a Video Sent to Me Blurry?

When sending videos through messaging apps, it's not uncommon to encounter the frustrating issue of blurry videos on the recipient's end. This can be attributed to several factors.

1. Compression is applied to reduce the video file size for faster transmission, but it often leads to a loss of quality, resulting in blurriness, pixelation, and reduced sharpness.

2. Bandwidth Limitations imposed by messaging apps can further degrade video quality during compression to prevent network congestion.

3. Format incompatibility between sender and recipient devices or apps might result in downgraded video quality.

4. Weak or unstable network connections and device limitations can contribute to blurriness as well. In cases where the network connection is weak or unstable, the video may experience buffering or packet loss during transmission, leading to a blurry playback on the recipient's device.

5. Device Limitations: The capabilities of the sender's and recipient's devices can also contribute to blurry videos. Older or lower-end devices may have limitations in terms of processing power and video playback capabilities. As a result, videos may appear blurry or pixelated on such devices, even if they were originally recorded in high resolution.
