How to brighten and resize a video on my iMac?
« on: July 06, 2021, 05:41:54 PM »
Our Ring video doorbell captured critters during the wee hours the other day. I cannot figure out what animals but it looks like they are playing (light reflection in eyes starts about 58 seconds into the video).  We have skunks, 'possums, raccoons, and grey fox in our neck of the woods.  We usually don't see cats at all because every house has a dog or dogs.

Using the Photos application on my iMac didn't do much of anything. I've tried a couple of online things but can't get a clear picture. Sometimes they look like squirrels to me, other times, maybe ferrets or meerkats, but I think that's my brain trying to figure it out. 

The video is also too big to load here. The video is mp4 and opens with QuickTime.
Thanks for any help!

Update... one of my neighbors who is certainly not as tech-challenged as I am, uploaded the video to clideo.com but there wasn't enough quality in the video because it was so dark.  Thanks for reading!
