Hi,
I've installed VoukoderPro 1.2.5, but I can't find libx265 video encoder in the FFmpeg list.
Am I missing something, or does VoukoderPro not come with x265 support out of the box?

x264/5 can't be included due to license issues.
That's unfortunate
Is it possible for me to build my own version of ffmpeg-encoders.dll which could include x264/5? I wouldn't be sharing this publicly, so there would be no licence issues, right?
That's correct! And that's the legal option you've got.
You'd need a custom set of these files:
Take a look at https://github.com/VoukoderPro/FFmpeg to get an idea on how to do it.
Had a look, but I think I'm in way over my head with this, thought it would be simpler to build a custom .dll / .exe with support for x264/5, and just replace files with my current instalation.
I guess I'll have to rely on Constant QP with hevc_nvenc. Thanks.

- swresample-voukoderpro-5.dll
- swscale-voukoderpro-8.dll

Hi Vouk, can you build some VouoderPro dll files with X264/265 and place them on another Github project? So that users can download them themselves. Does this mitigate license risk?
I'll think about it.
I'll think about it.
Have you put some thought into it? 😅
Indeed. And I've found a way how x264/5 can be back legally. I'll announce it later this year.
Wow! That's good news indeed! ☺️
Indeed. Can't wait to stop exporting in DNx and using Handbrake 😅

Please also add again the x264
x264 will be also supported!
