Current building status:

Looking for binary?

(If the binary is unstable on your system, please compile it from the source code)

Windows (64 bit):

For linux users, please compile the source code

If you find any bugs, you are welcomed to open new issues.

First, all the commercial HEVC analyzers are too expensive.

Second, we need to draw additional grphics on the analysis results. It supports custom filters. In fact, all the features are implemented via custom filters.
