Quote from: Reikom-br on September 03, 2026, 06:52:13 PMHello, I can't download the latest version available on FossHub for Windows; the link redirects to the homepage.

Indeed, Fosshub seems to be effectively defunct, other applications are also affected. Sourceforge still works: https://sourceforge.net/projects/avidemux/files/avidemux/2.8.1/

However, using less outdated 2.8.2 nightlies generally provides a better experience.

If you must have the VC++ version.

Alternatively.

Hello, I can't download the latest version available on FossHub for Windows; the link redirects to the homepage. Is there another way to get the program?

Win64/VC++ 2.8.1 Install (64 bits), FossHub,

Exactly zero coding is involved in compiling Avidemux on macOS.

Unfortunately, as far as I understand the situation, the legal and technical framework that requires to be a registered Apple developer to distribute an arm64 (Apple Silicon) macOS app rules out the chance of an end-user friendly solution at least for the near future.

No, there haven't been any changes to bundled FFmpeg libs.

Cross-compiled builds should show the last git commit hash they have been generated from in "Help" --> "About Avidemux" dialog. Search for that commit in the repository then.

The course of action regarding FFmpeg will be evaluated as soon as possible. Whoever is concerned about security but needs to be able to sleep at night should never read Apple Clang warnings when compiling FFmpeg

Do you intent to update the included ffmpeg to a newer version (latest is 9.0.1) ?

several CVE issues have been fixed since 7.0.2

Hello,

Perhaps by using the newer MinGW64 versions that use Qt6...
But that's completely unverifiable...
It seems that adding features to AviDemux is more important than updating a version that's already running.

I am getting repeated warnings that Apple will be killing off support for Intel based Apps. Will be there be native downloadable build for Silcon based Macs?

I've seen people talking on other threads about building/compiling their own version of Avidemux. Unfortunately this is not something in my skillset. I haven't done any coding since using basic on a BBC micro in the 90s and even then I was crap at that.

Looking at other threads I have the feeling the answer is a definitive no. If that is the case does anyone know of any similar apps for Mac to Avidemux that would allow me to cut adverts out of .ts TV broadcasts. They don't need to be as good as Avidemux, but something poorer is better than nothing at all.

Hello, I've been using Avidemux for years to cut and merge my videos. My process is that I encode the videos to same codecs with handbrake but keep the original framerate (25,30 etc) of each video intact and merge everything with Avidemux into a single variable framerate video. Later, I also edit it again with Avidemux if needed to add new clips or rearrange. Recently I discovered that Avidemux introduces jitter into the video when I was checking something in MPC-HC statistics (ctrl+4) ( see attachment, left is before editing and right after it the jitter went up to 5ms) and It seems it only happens if I cut a previously merged video into separate clips and merge again after either rearragement of adding new videos. Merging with ffmpeg concact or mkvtoolnix doesn't add the jitter.

I think it's very important Avidemux should give a warn when sees an unsupported stream in MKV (like soft subtitles), that will be removed on conversion/copy of audio/video streams.
I'm quite advanced user but converted many video before realizing it removed all of that. Fortunately of some I kept the original, extracted subtitles and re-added, but some I lost the subs.
I Imagine many users fall on this, and it is a subtle dataloss bug/rfe.

Currently 2.8.2 nightly 260516 on Debian 13
