Avanti is powered by Gui4C li

gui4cli.com and by its own
additional dll's which are all
written in C and C ++.
Therefore Avanti is small
and relies only on the basic
Windows OS resources.
It should run without problems
on Windows XP and Vista.

Notes for Windows 7

and 8 users. (updated)
Avanti GUI is a free front-end for FFmpeg with the option to insert AviSynth as pre-processor.
It offers user friendly control over all basic and advanced FFmpeg options. A number of
template examples are included. No need to be familiar with AviSynth to use the predefined
Avanti/AviSynth pre-processor options. Avanti comes as a portable application packed in a zip
folder and doesn't require installation. No adware or internet access. (more ...).

Changelog.

We use the Zeranoe FFmpeg builds as reference during Avanti development.

These builds are frequently updated and include all required extra libraries,
FFplay and the full html documentation.
You can download the latest static Win32 build here and copy ffmpeg.exe
and ffplay.exe to the ffmpeg folder at your Avanti install directory. If the latest
build fails with the current Avanti version, try an older build from this archive.
The last FFmpeg version we checked out successfully with Avanti 0.8.4 is ...

ffmpeg version N-67362-g0971154

Zeranoe archive date November 3, 2014

Note that this concerns the basic functioning and that there is no guarantee
that all FFmpeg codecs and options will work as to be expected.
Wanna build your own FFmpeg? Visit the Zeranoe forum for details and support.
Please do not post Avanti related questions at this forum (see support below).

AviSynth ...
Although optional, we highly recommend to install AviSynth (version 2.5.7 up)
to take advantage of all built-in Avanti/AviSynth options. You can download the
latest AviSynth version here
The subtitle option requires you have the "VSFilter.dll" plugin in your AviSynth
plugins folder. You can download this plugin here

7-ZIP ...
The Avanti package and some of the FFmpeg builds are packed with 7-Zip.
If you have problems with unpacking, you can download 7-Zip here

Support ...
In the past seven years the developer of Avanti answered questions, posted at the
Avanti support thread at the videohelp.com forums. Due to the current trend to not
come off with any feedback on given suggestions, added features and fixed bugs,
the developer decided to only occasionally check out this forum for posts. You can
still give it a try or read the included chm help. Sorry!
