Ah, ok.

But... what you are doing when you "send it by Fastmail" is giving the whole contents of the video to them, and asking them to send a copy of that to each recipient.

If the video is big, or if there's lots of recipients, it's a wasteful way to do things. It's also quite likely to fail if the recipients' email systems are not willing to accept such a huge incoming email.

It would be better to learn how to upload it once to a fixed place, and then just send the URL (a link to that place) to everyone else.

I only use Fastmail through its web interface accessed from Firefox running on a pc. I could explain how to upload a file to Fastmail's storage from the web interface...but perhaps you use the Fastmail 'app' on your phone? I have never used that and don't know how to do it from there. But someone here must be able to explain it.
