I receive an error when trying to run "Avidemux_2.8.2 VC++ 64bits 250526.exe" and of course Windows 8.1 does not support DX12... Natively.
Would it be sufficient to grab runtime libraries?

If you are able to try and to report back, that would be great. I can test on Windows 11 only.

Runtimes don't seem to include DX12.
This thread may be relevant, perhaps there are some plugins/extensions that could be removed from the installer to make it work.

Windows 8.1 doesn't support DX12 so I don't think it can be worked around without providing a custom .dll with the installer to handle this.
Unless VC redistributables would do something...?
