VidCoder 8.26 instal the last version for windows

Note: This also works with VidCoder since it uses HandBrake as its encoding engine!ġ. Warning: This process is not easy and is only recommended to more advanced users!

The Mac version of HandBrake uses Apple’s Core Audio AAC encoder, which is better than FDK but cannot be provided on Windows as its a proprietary library.įortunately, you can still compile HandBrake from source and enable FDK as an optional compile-time option, this guide will tell you how this can be done for the Windows version of HandBrake: The default AAC encoder Libav ( ) is lacking in quality compared to FDK (especially at lower bitrates) as its only a basic AAC encoder, however from version 1.2.0 onwards, HandBrake uses the FFmpeg AAC encoder which is better than Libav but still not as good as FDK (see this website for more info about AAC encoders: ).

Introduction: As you are likely aware, the FDK-AAC encoder was removed from Handbrake ( ) from version 0.10.5 onwards, as it can no longer be publicly distributed due to GPL licensing issues (see: ).
