Encoding for Web
Need to share your vid with others or looking to self host? Vidtech Encoder can convert your vid to a number of formats:
- h264 (using x264)
- h265/HEVC (using x265 codec)
- VP9
- AV1

Preparing footage
Vidtech encoder can take video files you have and make them suitable for editing software. By stripping audio, remuxing into supported containers or converting to editing-grade codecs like ProRes, DNxHR and Cineform, you can make sure any footage you have can be used in your editing software.
About Vidtech Encoder
Vidtech Encoder is an FFmpeg GUI for vidders and vidding conventions. Basically, it's a program to help you encode vids into different formats. Under the hood it uses the open-source program ffmpeg.
This application is a spiritual successor to LlamaEnc which was made to help vidders encode files for Vividcon.
The software is provided as-is. If you find any bugs or have any suggestions for how to improve the software, please contact me at ian@absolutedestiny.org
