Overview

Ut Video Codec Suite is a multi-interface lossless video codec.

Environment

Supported environment (Windows)

OS

Windows 10 (x64) or later

CPU

CPU with SSE4.1 support

Recommended environment

CPU

4th Generation Intel Core i series (codename "Haswell") or later

Installation Notice

Windows

If version 10.2.0 or older is installed, you have to uninstall that version before you install this version.

If VCM codec is not registered properly, merge utvideo.reg in install destination with registry as a last resort. This file assumes Windows directory is C:\Windows.

List of families

Ut Video Codec Suite includes several codecs using different internal process and internal format. The group using same internal process is called "family" in Ut Video Codec Suite.

A list and summary of the families are as follows.

UtVideo (unmarked)

• This family is available since the first version.
• It has a mode that performs compression suitable for interlaced video.

UtVideo T2

• Compared to unmarked family, this family achieves lower compression ratio and higher speed in many cases.
• It supports inter-frame compression.

UtVideo Pro

• This family supports deep color (color depth over 8bit). Currently, only 10bit is implemented.
• Colorspace conversion is not performed by the codec.

List of FourCC

• Bold are "native" (no colorspace conversion occurs) formats. It is recommended to input/output with that formats.
• Formats written in brackets are equivalent format with preceding format. For example, YUY2, YUYV and YUNV are equivalent.
• *1 In case of NV12, the width must be a multiple of 4.

Ut Video Codec Suite is a free software. Donations to support development are always welcome. For more information, visit "About Donations" page.
