I've installed FFmpeg.GPL.Installer.msi from GitHub, reboot my PC just in case, but opening DaVinci 19 I get this:

I've checked and C:\Program Files\FFmpeg is in the system PATH.
What am I doing wrong?
Even though it sucks for people like me - that is only looking to improve their workflow for their own personal videos - as a software developer myself, I can relate and completely support your decision 👍
One thing that wasn't clear to me though, will you provide the FFmpeg in it's own package along with the release of v2, or will this come at a later time?
Indeed. Can't wait to stop exporting in DNx and using Handbrake 😅
I'll think about it.
Have you put some thought into it? 😅
It should have been always set (at least with a certain muxer). But different muxers handle it differently.
I have no date set when it will be available for you to test yet.
It's not what I was observing. In fact, I rendered the same video multiple times until I got a version without the timecode track. A bit of a pain 😅, but until that new version is out, it's what I have to do, otherwise the files won't direct play for me with Plex.
Hopefully you can get that new version out soon 🤞. Keep up the good work.
If you want a timecode track set this needs to be enabled in the muxer settings now:
Awesome, thank you for this. I'm guessing this applies to both MOV and MP4, right?
previously hardcoded
But if it was hardcoded, shouldn't all encoded files contain the timecode track, cause that's not what I observed. Some had it, some didn't, which I found strange.
Available in the next release.
I should know better than to ask this, but any ETA? 😅
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.
Thoughts on this Vouk?
Yesterday I did some more tests and encoded the same clip multiple with the same scene settings but only changing the quantizer value for hevc_nvenc (to compare file sizes and output quality),a and while some of the tiles contained the timecode track, others didn't.
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?
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?
You can have speed improvements if both formats match up.
What happens when the formats can't match up? For instance, I usually export in YUV 4:2:0 (10-bit), but there's no such option on that list.
But as I think about it ... I could actually automate this and make this a bit more simple.
That would be interesting because it was a bit confusing when I was setting up my scenes for the first time. Thanks for looking into it.
Hello,
I've installed the latest VoukoderPro with the DaVinci Resolve plugin, and here's what I see in the Deliver page:
I'm wondering what's the relevance (and impact) of this "Type" setting, given that the colour space is something you usually pick in the encoder settings.
I've tried to encode the same clip with the different types here available, but each file always ended up with the format that was picked in the encoder settings. As an example, if I picked yuv444p16le for the hevc_nvenc and YUV 4:2:0 (8 bit) for the "Type", this would still give me an output file in 4:4:4 (16 bit).
With that said, it feels like this "Type" setting is unused. Is it? Or am I using it wrong? If not, and if this setting does nothing, any chance you can remove it from the plugin so it doesn't cause confusion?
Hi there,
I've been using VoukoderPro with DaVinci Resolve, and I've been testing multiple scenes to try to find one that fits my needs. One of those needs is that the file needs to direct play in the official Plex Media Player for Android/iOS.
I've recently found that some of the encodes I was testing were being transcoded by Plex, which didn't make sense to me. I eventually realized that the video files that were being transcoded included a 3rd track (besides video and audio):
For some reason, this is causing Plex to transcode these files. What's stranger is that this timecode track is being added randomly to my files. In DaVinci Resolve, I pick the same scene, encode it multiple times, and sometimes the track is included, sometimes it's not. This could be a me problem, but so far I have not noticed that I changed anything else between encodes for some video files to include this timecode track, while others don't.
It seems that this was introduced after this thread, but I can't seem to find a way to disable this behaviour for mov/mp4 containers. Does such an option exist?
