Discord auto compresses images but not video even when clicked on 'Send Compressed'

KABI

While sharing images and videos over 8MB, discord says 'Your file is too powerful' and there are three buttons and toggle switch to the pop-up.

A toggle Switch to always compress images,

First button for 'Send Compressed',

Second button for 'Learn about Nitro',

Third button to 'Cancel' the upload.

While discord compresses images over 8MB and file is sent in channel, nothing happens when clicked on 'Send Compressed' button for videos (over 8MB).

I assumed this on-the-go compression facility is available for images only and not for other file formats.

Is it this assumption correct?

If not, is it a bug ?

    Also having this issue running the most recent version of the app, if compression for videos on mobile isn't allowed, you should be routed to a different dialog. If it should work, please fix it.

    Also have this issue, for months. Annoying to have to trim videos down to 4-5s in order for it to send since anything more needs to be compressed and obviously, that can't be done.
