Main version 2.6 / Re: Meaning of .idxb files

If you mostly don't profit from avoiding repeated decoding of frame type in MP4 files, create an environment variable ADM_NOINDEX_MP4 for MP4 (ADM_NOINDEX_MKV for Matroska) files and set its value to 1

Great only needed it disabled for MP4 so this is perfect, Thanks for the info.

Thank you.  Just what I needed to know.

The last known good official nightly build is cross-compiled (built with MinGW on Linux for 64bit Windows) r241212. Therefore, completely remove the incompatible VC++ build, then install (or unpack) the cross-compiled one.

Avidemux is an inherently portable application, it doesn't need to be installed to run. Using an installer-packaged build may add just some comfort Windows-integration features like "open with" context menu entries.

I started to update my Avidemux 2.8.1 but couldn't complete the installation. A window displayed for the Setup Wizard with three options, Add or Remove Components, Update Components, and Remove All Components.  I'm usure which one to select if I just want to update my current version to the newer version.  Thank you for your help.

Caution is certainly recommended, but VxKex loads it's own dll's when executing an application. The nature of how it works is going to create warnings with virustotal etc.
I would never dream of using Win 7 with an online system. As such, I have never encountered any issues with the version of VxKex I have installed.

If it runs fine – very good. If it doesn't, nothing can be done about it. I plan to update FFmpeg at least to 7.1.1 for the next release.

r241212 nightly runs just fine on Win 7.

This is still so with the correction that you should build your binaries yourself. Once official build nodes have been fully updated (which is a tedious manual process for the maintainer in case of MSVC), supply of fully functional official nightly builds will resume.

The setup for cross-compiling should be very simple and effectively fully automated as long as you are satisfied with a ZIP-packaged build (no installer).

I have no idea about Windows 7 compatibility as I cannot test on Windows 7. The last known good build is r241212 which is a cross-compiled build. Theoretically, it should be able to run on Windows 7, but it is up to you to verify it.

I don't remember whether the VC++ build from Dec 14 2024 is OK, sorry for that.

How does it effect ADM?

Again, I cannot test on Windows 7. Please try r241212 (much better: build yourself from the latest git master) and report the results. If it runs fine – very good. If it doesn't, nothing can be done about it. I plan to update FFmpeg at least to 7.1.1 for the next release.

OK then, if I get you right - until further notice - better no VS binaries from
2025 upwards?

(Something not being supported doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't do anymore,
but only it's not taken into account/ tested etc.)
