What is Voukoder?

Voukoder is a plugin for video editors to adds support for various modern encoders & ffmpeg post processing filters (notably for Upscaling)

The currently documented Voukoder plugins on ctt.cx are:

  • VEGAS Pro
  • Adobe Premiere Pro
  • Adobe After Effects

  • DaVinci Resolve Studio(1)

    1. DaVinci Resolve Studio is required

      The free version does not support plugins!

Installation

I have made a PowerShell script which automates the following:

  • Install and/or updates Voukoder Core
  • Scans for open video editors to install a connector to
  • Prompts you with a list of export templates to import

Open PowerShell and paste in the following command

iex(irm tl.ctt.cx);Install-Voukoder

The script goes through the following steps:

  1. Scan for an active Voukoder Core installation
    • If it is not up to date / installed, download and run the latest installer passively
  2. Look for video editor process names
    • If there is no connector for it installed, download and run the latest installer with automatic connection
  3. Display a list of render templates to import

Installing the Core

You must first install the Voukoder Classic Core, only after will you install a connector which acts as the NLE-specific plugin.

See https://www.voukoder.org/forum/thread/783 for download links

Installing the Connector

If the connector fails to find your video editor, and simply proposes C:\

then you MUST manually locate and indicate where to install it.

  1. Search VEGAS up in your search menu and right click it -> Open file location

  2. You'll most likely end up in your start menu's program shortcuts, in that case right click the selected shortcut again and click Open file location again

  3. If it opens a folder containing vegas..0.exe, copy the folder path(1) and paste this

    1. If not come ask for support on Discord

Paste in the following folder path:

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\7.0\MediaCore\

This folder path worked for me when it didn't propose it, if you know more about this please contribute.
