FFmpeg VVC En/decoder & xHE-AAC installation (Windows, Mac OS and Linux)

Windows, Mac and Linux (Preview of vvc video in ffplay):

ffmpegplaypreview macos_vvceasy_ff linux_vvceasy_ff

Play video file

You can play VVC video codec with .h266, .vvc, .266 and anything or .mp4 muxed with VVC codec:

ffplay_vvceasy versatile.266

Or if you have xHE-AAC audio codec:

ffplay_vvceasy -codec:a libfdk_aac -i versatile.m4a

Limitations of FFmpeg VVC encoder

Before encode to VVC video codec, see the limitations below.

libvvenc (FFmpeg vvc version) works for:

  • Pixel format ✅ (changeable of 8/10bit)
  • Video size (auto detects, but it doesn't detect for SAR and DAR anamorphic is glitch and corrupts the video ) ⚠️ (Better way to use vvencapp without FFmpeg)
  • Frame rate ✅ (auto detects)
  • MP4 Muxing ❌ (does not support, you need MP4BOX after encode.)
  • Audio with encode VVC ⚠️ (does not support, because it can corrupt the file) To avoid corrupt file, you need to disable audio using -an or you could do output container for .266, .vvc and .h266 too.
  • Bitrates ✅
  • Passes ⚠️ (only one pass)
  • Presets ⚠️ (only medium preset)
  • QP/CRF ⚠️ (only you can set -global_quality command only, global_quality equals qp)
  • HDR ⚠️ (default SDR, but cannot encode HDR)

Built in libvvenc for FFmpeg command:

ffmpeg -i example.mp4 -c:v libvvenc -global_quality 37 -pix_fmt yuv420p10 example.266

Additional command: You can convert to vvc video without taking a much space for vvencapp, example:

ffmpeg -i example.mp4 -f rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p - | vvencapp -i - -s 1920x1080 -r 25 --preset medium --qp 32 -o example1.266

Converting xHE-AAC to AAC audio:

ffmpeg -c:a libfdk_aac -i mymusic.m4a -c:a aac -b:a 128k mymusic.aac

Replace video size for -s and frame rate for -r.

Update 21th May 2022 of FFmpeg vvdec support

Good news, you can play .mp4 file after .h266 and audio format were merged into mp4 playable of VVC.

About xHE-AAC, now it's available decode support xHE-AAC of FFmpeg. Exhale (encoder) is free to use and open source, but if you want Fraunhofer IIS xHE-AAC, you can download EZ CD Audio Converter for Windows only. You can also merge your encoded xHE-AAC audio into mp4 too.

To make playable mp4 with audio and video together, you need VVC video encoded, audio file and GPAC Nightly build. Code for mp4box/gpac to merge VVC video encoded and audio file:

mp4box -add video.266 -add audio.m4a -new convertedvvc.mp4

Containers are also acceptable video containers of .mkv, .mp4, .mov and more.

For Linux and Mac OS users: Replace mp4box by gpac

Important Windows users for old builds

If you're using the old build, please download a new build of FFmpeg VVCEasy version.

Now it's static build of Windows FFmpeg VVCEasy version.

This is a fix of Intel CPU users and updated versions.

Special thanks to @ZenKiyoshi for Intel build bug. See the issue: #16

Mac OS downloaders (Important note)

Please note, this is not a malware of my compiled build, see the three screenshots to make run ffmpeg tools customised version

You need to allow the app on your Mac OS for chmod write access & Security & Privacy:

Step 1: Click cancel button, do not move to bin.

Build Mac OS for FFmpeg VVC build

Requirements:

Xcode

CMake

NASM

Homebrew

Code to build FFmpeg VVC version:

brew install libxml2 ffmpeg fdk-aac nasm
git clone https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvenc
git clone https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvdec
cd vvenc && mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..
sudo cmake --build . --target install -j $nproc
cd ../../
cd vvdec && mkdir build && cd build
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr/local ..
sudo cmake --build . --target install -j $nproc
cd ../../
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/MartinEesmaa/FFmpeg-FixVVC
cd FFmpeg-FixVVC
./configure --enable-libfdk-aac --enable-libvvenc --enable-libvvdec --enable-static --enable-pic --enable-libxml2 --pkg-config-flags="--static" --enable-sdl2
make -j

Linux downloaders (Important note)

Unfortunately, this is Ubuntu 22.04 LTS build only.

If you are using other linux without Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, you have to build using this:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && \
sudo apt install build-essential cmake nasm autoconf pkg-config python3-setuptools libtool git wget && \
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvenc && \
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/fraunhoferhhi/vvdec && \
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/mstorsjo/fdk-aac && \
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL && \
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/gnome/libxml2 && \
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/xiph/opus && \
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/MartinEesmaa/FFmpeg-FixVVC && \

cp libvvenc.pc.in vvenc/pkgconfig/ && \
cd vvenc && sudo make install-release install-prefix=/usr/local disable-lto=1 && \
cd .. && \
cd vvdec && sudo make install-release install-prefix=/usr/local disable-lto=1 && \
cd .. && \
cd fdk-aac && autoreconf -if && ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-static --disable-shared && sudo make install -j $nproc && \
cd .. && \
cd libxml2 && autoreconf -if && ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-static --disable-shared && sudo make install -j $nproc && \
cd .. && \
cd opus && autoreconf -if && ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-static --disable-shared && sudo make install -j $nproc && \
cd .. && \
cd SDL && ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --enable-static --disable-shared && sudo make install -j $nproc && \
cd .. && cd FFmpeg-FixVVC && \
./configure --enable-static --pkg-config-flags="--static" --extra-ldexeflags="-static" \
--enable-libfdk-aac --enable-libvvenc --enable-libvvdec --enable-pic \
--enable-libxml2 --enable-libopus --enable-sdl2 && \
make -j

If compiling is success and finished, you can install FFmpeg VVC, using the code:

mv ffmpeg ffmpeg_vvceasy
mv ffplay ffplay_vvceasy
mv ffprobe ffprobe_vvceasy
sudo cp ffmpeg_vvceasy ffplay_vvceasy ffprobe_vvceasy /usr/local/bin
