Thank you for your most intelligent post to this forum.
When people ask for a download possibility directly from the creator where they can easily download the original file(s) they need I'm willing to help them, yes. I'm not the kind of person to tell them "You want it? Search for it! HAHAHA! LMAO"
People have asked me how they can support and donate to this project, but the current options won't work in their country. So I am thinking of providing possibilities that allow people from this country to support to this project and try to set up services like AliPay, etc.
And why should I ignore requests from people if they represent the largest group of voukoder users?
P.S.: You might have noticed this is not just related to one forum post.
I know there are quite alot users working still with Premiere CS6. Maybe because of the faster and more responsive UI, maybe because it doesn't require a subscription model to use it. Unfortunately Adobe removed all downloads completely a while ago and there is no way of installing it anymore as an "old version" from the creative cloud app. Adobe also rejected my request to provide me an alternative solution to somehow still get CS6.
That basically means I also have to drop supporting CS6 in the Adobe Premiere Connector, too.
But maybe there is one last chance: If the CS6 community would be able to donate me a (fully legal) Premiere CS6 package I would be able to continue testing to make sure later versions of Voukoder are still compatible with it. Illegal ways to solve this matter are not an option!
Make sure you are using the latest connector for your application(s). For using NVENC (SDK 9.1) encoders driver version 436.15 or later is required.
Chinese users
As Voukoder is very popular in china I'd love to make it more (easy) available for chinese users. I need a chinese contact person that helps me to understand the chinese situation better and support me with setting up various services in china that I can also access from europe. Please contact me if you have experience with this, you can speak good english (or german) and want to help. Thanks.

Please read this information carefully and follow each of these steps.
1. FFmpeg
You need to install FFmpeg first. This package is doing the actual encoding work. Due to licensing (and software patent) reasons this can't be bundeled anymore.
1.1. Windows
For windows you can use available FFmpeg 7.1 DLL installers: Just install it, they'll do everything for you in either GPL or LGPL version. Select only one of them, download it and install it. If you are not using my provided packages you have to make sure the installation directory has been added to the PATH variable.
NOTE: Only the GPL version contains the x264 and x265 encoders.
1.2. MacOS (beta)
You can install the required libraries using homebrew by entering this in your terminal:
Code
brew install ffmpeg@7
2. Voukoder Pro
Next you need to install the package below. It also contains the NLE plugins (previousely called connectors). So installing any connecter installer is not necessary anymore. Just select the NLE Plugins in the "Voukoder Pro" installer and verify the installation directory is correct.
Note: On some systems a reboot might be necessary.
3. License Keys
Finally you need to get a license key by clicking on the top "License" menu which you can then enter in the registration dialog. It is a good practice you use the trial license first and you test your workflow with it before buying the real license.
These requirements must be met so "Voukoder Pro" can work.

1 The free version of "DaVinci Resolve" is not supported! 2 It'd be great if someone could report if it's working on Big Sur 3 The Linux version is currently in development and is not ready yet!
But it seems to be the old topic: If Vegas is not delivering enough frames per second the encoder can not encode this frames. It is just waiting for vegas. It also depends on how complex your project is.
Yes I will investigate here. I will probably need a chinese contact person who explains the whole situation in china to me. Preferably with good english skills and also knowing how to work together internationally. Can you use this website without VPN?
This issue is getting reported again and again, but I was never able to reproduce it myself. Thanks for providing the neccessary steps so i was finally able to reproduce this behaviour on my dev machine. So, yes I can confirm it and looking into it right now.
