Q: How to disable photos app to compress video?
When I use photos app to manage pic and video (for example, automatically import from iphone to photos), if I drag a video from photos library to desktop, the app may keep blocking, no warning, no repsonse, I thought something is wrong and try to kill the app. Actually I found it is because the app is compressing the video file. I have to say it is really an ugly design. Why cannot I drag original video to a folder? I don't like downgraded video. Furthermore, why cannot photos give a warning that the app is busying on processing video, but give user an awful experience? Could anyone tell me how to disable video compressing? Thanks a lot.
iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.6)

Don't drag anything out of Photos - export it (file menu ==> export) and if you want no compression or other changes only export the unmodified original - that gives you an exact bit for bit copy of the image you impoerted
