Is there an app which can transcode all big videos on my phone on a schedule? (lemmy.ml)

My phone takes pretty good videos but the filesize is absurbd. Using handbrake on desktop can make them far smaller at almost the same quality but my phone storage fills up rather fast and this requires me to move them off device.

Is there an app which keeps track of non transcoded videos in my camera folder and can transcode them on my phone while I am asleep?

FFMPEG Media Encoder can do the main part. You will need something else to handle scheduling though.

All transcoding programs are FFMPEG with a GUI on top in essence. I mostly wondered whether there was an out of the box solution for Android. Don't feel like hacking it together myself.
