VVCEasy by Martin Eesmaa

VVCEasy is that you don't have to compile or/and coding to encode VVC (known as Versatile Video Codec). Simple, Easy, Encode and Decode.

It supports Windows, macOS, Linux, BSD, Android & WebAssembly for VVCEasy builds.

From 20 October 2021 to 23 June 2022, VVCEasy was pre-release and construction mode.

Since 23 June 2022, VVCEasy was initial released on v1.0.0.

VVCEasy comes for one-easy command by FFmpeg-VVC, Fraunhofer HHI VVC binaries, uvg266, MPV, LAVFilters with MPC-HC & MPC-BE and more.

Installation: Go to the releases and download latest version.

Windows source run (Batch-file) (for encoding/decoding, it needs to be manually edit batchfile to modify video file name): VVCEasy.bat

Windows/Mac/Linux source run (Csharp): Bin/Release or Debug/netX.x/VVCEasy.exe (after build of C#), this requires VVCEasy.dll to run console application.

Tests of VVC videos

You can test Martin Eesmaa's encoded movies of VVC video codec and follow README.txt instructions.

VLC InterDigital VTM VVC Plugin

I have great news. VLC latest version worked out well of Inter Digital VTM plugins. On o266player, there were some problems on my computer for one reason...

One reason that my Windows 11 operating system won't view video of VVC file on o266player version. On VTM plugins of VLC, now it shows me VVC video good.

Here is a comparison of o266player version and VTM VVC plugins:

Top left and right is o266player by Tencent Cloud.

Bottom left and right is VLC VTM plugins by Inter Digital Inc.

windows8testbetweno266playerandvtmplugins

UPDATE of 19/04/2022 00:20 AEST:

Bug of Inter Digital VTM VLC Plugin:

When you try to play your MPEG-TS or TS file, it will crash with your InterDigital VLC VTM Plugin installed on your VLC Media Player.

Without InterDigital VLC VTM Plugin, playing MPEG-TS or TS file will play fine in your all original plugins (except VLC VTM Plugin) on your VLC Media Player.

Compile for VVCEasy

VVCEasy Batchfile Version (optional) (Windows only)

First, before you compile to VVCEasy Batchfile Version, you need to install Inno Setup before compiling VVCEasy. Inno Setup link: https://jrsoftware.org/isdl.php

Step 1: Clone VVCEasy git and open up VVCEasy_compiler.iss file

cd %userprofile%\Downloads
git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/MartinEesmaa/VVCEasy && cd VVCEasy
VVCEasy_compiler.iss

Step 2: Press F9 to compile on your keyboard. After compiling, VVCEasy.exe (Installer) can be found on Install folder. VVCEasyclickblueplaybutton


VVCEasy .NET Console Version (optional)

First, before you compile to VVCEasy .NET Console Version, you need .NET SDK x64 from Microsoft. Link: https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download

Step 1: Clone git and cd VVCEasy

git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/MartinEesmaa/VVCEasy && cd VVCEasy

Step 2: When you build, this will restore project first and then compiles.

dotnet build -c Release

Step 3: Once building is done, the build folder directory is bin/Release

cd bin/Release

Tip: You can run VVCEasy without building.

dotnet run

Publish single .NET binary executable

If you want to compile and publish into one portable executable file, you can create if you wish like.

dotnet publish -c Release

After that, it should be found for example at bin\Release\netX.x\win-x64\publish.

GUI applications (easy)

If you're not familiar for using CLI, you can use GUI with application window for ease use and without typing commands on your terminal.

These VVC programs of encode/decode are listed:

Programs with website or GitHub link Note Creator
Fastflix You might need to download my custom FFmpeg builds for encoding/decoding VVC using external libraries, rename to ffmpeg.exe and ffprobe.exe from my custom names only, no ffplay executable file required Chris Griffith
VVC-GUI-Encoder Only encoder Disa Kizonda
aVVCator Only encoder & Linux only Gianni Rosato
VVenCguiEx Original Japanese language only for instructions and application (you can still translate), only encoder & Windows only, requires Aviutl (this may be medium or hard) rigaya
VVConvert (only encoder, encodes to VVC raw bitstream from any FFmpeg compatible video codecs, requires FFmpeg to open input video files) Alec Carter (source code)
Av1ador This program allows to encode VVC while transcoding by preview and comparison from original video, includes other encoders as well. porcino

Hard option (deprecated)

FAQ (known as Frequently Asked Questions)

Before you ask any question, see the questions below please.

Q1: Are you the real creator of VVCEasy?

A1: Yes... but I'm not a real creator of VVC, I didn't built VVC, it was Fraunhofer HHI that he built VVC.

Q2: Are you trying to work build of VVCEasy?

A2: Well, yes... it takes longer time to make VVCEasy easier, but VVCEasy is not yet finished until further/update announcement. I don't have employees, so I'm the only one worker.

Q3: Is it okay to bring my proof screenshots of errors?

A3: Yes, you can bring error screenshots for your proof. More proof, easy to solve it.

Q4: My question is not listed on FAQ. Can I ask any question to you?

A4: Sure, just go to Issues tab, ask questions or/and give your issue to me, I'd be happy to solve :).

Q5: Do you know what you have skills in your programming?

A5: I know about batch file and HTML programming. Some hard programming languages might be difficult for me :/. Update of 19th February 2022: Maybe I should make C# Console program, that will be easy for Windows, Mac and Linux multi support.

If you have any questions or/and any issues, please go to Issues tab and create your own issue.
