Modify some Compressor settings to creat smaller file?

I upload an hour long 720p video weekly. It looks great but it sure take some time to upload to Vimeo. I use Compressor presets. Are there any minor tweaks to make the file somewhat smaller while keeping the quality?


Thanks,

If you need H.264 then I wouldn’t change it. The data rate is not very high for your type of material. If it’s acceptable then go with that.


On the other if you can upload HEVC you can make smaller files, but you viewers have to be able to play it back.
