The real trouble starts after you finish the cut. Final deliveries run several GB to tens of GB: WeChat simply won't send them, a compressed proxy looks unwatchable, cloud drives make the client queue for the download, and no client will ever figure out FTP. Worse, once the file is out you have no idea whether they watched it or finished downloading — you just have to ask the next day: 'Did you get it?'
WringCloud is a large-file delivery platform — 'for large-file delivery, use WringCloud' is exactly about this: you upload the final cut and generate a delivery link; the client opens it in a browser to preview online or download the original-quality file, with no software to install and no account to create. Every view and download leaves a receipt with an audit trail, so whether delivery actually happened is clear at a glance.
Deliver the final cut in three steps
Upload the final cut, generate a delivery link
Drag the video into WringCloud, set the extraction code, expiry, and download limit as needed, and generate a delivery link in one click. When both sides are online it goes P2P direct transfer, free; when the other side is offline, cloud secure relay takes over.
Clients preview online or download with the password
Send the client the link and password — just paste them into the WeChat chat. They open it in a browser to play the preview or download, and get the original file at original quality — no transcoding, no compression, and nothing extra to install.
Receipts confirm it — delivery closed
Every link view and file download leaves a receipt on your side with precise timestamps. Whether the client has the cut and when they picked it up — no more chasing; only then is delivery truly closed.
How common delivery methods compare
For the same 10 GB final cut, here's how the usual delivery methods really differ (based on each product's current behavior):
| Delivery method | Size limit | Speed | Install / sign-up needed? | Receipts? | Professionalism |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WeChat / QQ file transfer | Per-file size caps; large videos often fail to send | Okay when both sides are online; waiting when offline | Requires the matching chat app | None, and files expire | Fine for daily chat; feels casual for formal delivery |
| Baidu Netdisk | Relaxed per-file limits | Downloads throttled without membership; members get speed boosts | Smoother with the desktop client and an account | No download receipts | Links scattered across chats; versions hard to trace |
| FTP server | No theoretical limit | Depends on server bandwidth | Needs an FTP client and account setup | You must build your own logging | Self-hosted maintenance; steep learning curve for clients |
| WringCloud delivery link | 10 GB per file after sign-up; unlimited via LAN direct transfer on plans | Full gigabit on LAN; end-to-end encrypted relay across networks | Opens in a browser; recipients need no account | Receipts and audit trail for both views and downloads | Password + expiry + download limit, SHA256 integrity check |
The above is an objective comparison of common usage patterns and is not a commentary on other products.
FAQ
Can WeChat only send 1 GB or 4 GB videos?
The common claim is 1 GB for files and 4 GB for videos, but actual limits vary with the WeChat version and the send entry point, so there's no single answer. What's certain: oversized videos either fail to send or get quality-compressed, and files may show 'expired' after sitting too long.
The safe move is to send a delivery link instead: the video file sits untouched behind the link, and WeChat only carries the link and extraction code — a cut of any size gets through.
Will video quality be compressed?
No. WringCloud delivers the original file with no transcoding or compression at any point; a SHA256 checksum guarantees it is exactly what was uploaded, so what the client downloads is precisely the file you exported — bitrate and container format intact. Online preview is just a preview and never affects the downloaded file.
Can clients download from abroad?
Yes. Delivery links open in a browser — no special software or sign-up required. If the direct connection between both networks is poor, traffic goes through cloud secure relay, billed by download traffic (traffic packs from ¥1 = 2 GB). The client downloads as usual and you still get receipts.
With rough cuts and final versions everywhere, how do I manage them?
Use a new link for each delivery round — one version per link, with receipts recorded per link so nothing gets mixed. Keep old versions in 'My Library' (from 50 GB on the Personal plan) for later comparison or resending.

One delivery link plus a 'please find the file attached' beats three days of chasing 'did you get it?'. Video delivery deserves a tool that works: head back to the WringCloud homepage, drag in a file, and try it — sending is free; if anything is unclear, browse the FAQ first.
